Putting an End to Women Becoming Victims of Honour-Based Abuse

The charity Karma Nirvana is launching the #Push4Change campaign on International Women's Day, urging the government to urgently introduce a statutory definition for Honour Based Abuse.

The campaign is being supported by the mother of a woman who was murdered by her husband in a notorious case of honour abuse and coercive control. The murder of Fawziyah Javed was made into a documentary on Channel 4 this week - “The Push” which detailed the story of the murder and the trial of her killer husband. Despite three decades of increased awareness, addressing Honour Based Abuse is hindered by the lack of a clear statutory definition says Karma Nirvana.
