UK police recorded at least 2,823 so-called honour attacks last year, figures from 39 out of 52 forces show.
Honour attacks are punishments on people, usually women, for acts deemed to have brought shame on their family.
Such attacks can include acid attacks, abduction, mutilations, beatings and in some cases, murder.
