+Community pressures
You can either destroy your honour or your sister. If you don’t choose the latter you can’t walk amongst those around you as a man.”‘Honour Killings’: Stories of men who killed, Ayse Onal, 2008, al-Saqi Books, London

+Attributions of cultureHBV presented as cultural and often associated with Muslims
Describing a domestic murder as HBV without any evidence of HBV’s distinctive structure.
Right wing capitalisation upon HBV: website link is ‘how to leave Islam’

+Summary
Honour crimes are committed by the victim’s own family, often acting in collaboration, in order to restore their reputation in the community.
They have distinctive perpetration patterns and victim profiles.
They are very high risk and escalate very quickly.
Family solidarities make them very complex to address.
