Why it is Hate Crime ?
This case has been included in the 'undecided' database as further verification is needed to establish the motive behind the rape. Since she was targeted on her way out of the Hindu temple, chances are that she was religiously profiled, but since there is no conclusive evidence, it has been added to the undecided database
