What is a Hate Crime?

A hate crime is a criminal offence targeted at a person because of hostility or prejudice towards a person’s actual or perceived;

• Disability

• Race or Ethnicity

• Religion or Belief

• Sexual orientation

• Transgender identity

This can be committed against a person or property.

The victim does not have to define into any of these groups, but the perception that they do must exist for it to be a hate crime with an element of hostility or prejudice.
