Honour killings are not legally sanctioned in any country; however, certain cultures and communities may tolerate or fail to prosecute these acts effectively. In some countries, laws may exist that provide leniency for perpetrators if they claim to have acted in defense of family honor. This can create an environment where such killings are overlooked, particularly in parts of South Asia, the Middle East, and among specific immigrant communities. Nonetheless, many nations are actively working to strengthen laws against honour-based violence.
