This is everything you need to know about the value of this assertion.

Even if the government were above board–which it clearly is not–most crime goes unreported, even some homicides. And a disappearance is almost certainly a homicide, and the/this government hates admitting to those. If the intentional homicide rate for a given country were 5 per 100,000 you’d think, Wow, that’s amazing! But if you heard the disappearance rate was 50 per 100,000 would you still think the country was safe? Of course not, you’d think it was quite dangerous.

To the extent that you care about crime statistics, you generally need to get them from an outside source, such as an NGO.

(As well as look at disappearances–which may not even be logged as a crime–kidnappings, etc. to get anywhere close to the whole story.)
