Organization Report

An internal police regulation on hate crime investigation has been developed, with a view to introducing it to police practice in 2019, and will include a methodological guidance, including a list of bias indicators elaborated earlier by a working group of state and civil society organizations. The regulation's implementation will be made mandatory by an order of the police chief.

The Ministry of Interior, together with ODIHR and FRA, organized a workshop for police and other criminal justice agencies involved in recording hate crimes. The workshop produced a set of recommendations on improving hate crime registration, which were provided to the Ministry to be conveyed to police for implementation.

ODIHR Recommendations

ODIHR observes that Hungary’s law enforcement agencies have not recorded the bias motivations of hate crimes.
