Definition: ‘Honour’ based abuse is a form of domestic abuse which is perpetrated in the name of so called ‘honour’. In most honour-based abuse cases there are multiple perpetrators from the immediate family, sometimes the extended family and occasionally the community. Honour-based abuse can exist in any culture or community and males can also be victims.
