UK honour attacks

[Fudzy]

The Metropolitan Police said its domestic violence training for officers included the issues of honour-based violence and forced marriage.

Interesting that it's bundled in with domestic violence. I wonder how many non 'Honour' domestic attacks there are?

1 in 4 women will be a victim of domestic violence in their lifetime – many of these on a number of occasions.

One incident of domestic violence is reported to the police every minute.

On average, 2 women a week are killed by a current or former male partner.

Pretty close to our own stats.
