Violence
Being physically aggressive with the intent to harm someone. This could be from someone you have a personal relationship with such as a partner or a family member.
Honour based violence is a violent crime or incident which may have been committed to protect or defend the honour of the family or community.
It is often linked to family members or acquaintances who mistakenly believe someone has brought shame to their family or community by doing something that is not in keeping with the traditional beliefs of their culture.
