Why it is Hate Crime ?
In this case, the perpetrator abducted and raped a Hindu minor. There are suspicions that the Hindu child was targeted owing to her religious identity. From the details available, it is entirely possible that the crime was one of opportunity - where the child was simply accessible to the perpetrator. However, there is a flip side to the argument - for a Muslim perpetrator, a Muslim child would be far more accessible than a Hindu child. The fact that the perpetrator specifically targeted the Hindu child could point towards the religious profiling of the victim. However, this is only in the realm of speculation since the case details make no indications of the religious motivations of the perpetrator. For that reason, this case is being added to the 'Undecided' database. If more information emerges, it will be added to the Hate Crime Database.
