How hate crime data is collected in North Macedonia

How hate crime data is collected in North Macedonia

Police officers record relevant information when preparing their reports in a section titled "Indications that a hate crime has been committed". This section includes indicators that the incident was a hate crime, while also stating the relevant characteristics of the victim singled out by the perpetrator of the crime.

These characteristics include: sex, race, skin colour, gender, belonging to a marginalized group, ethnic affiliation, language, nationality, social origin, religion or religious conviction, other types of conviction, education, political affiliation, personal or social status, mental or physical disability, age, family or marital status, property status, health status or any other grounds set forth under law or international treaties.

Data about criminal charges filed under the relevant articles are entered in the electronic data system of the Ministry of the Interior. The Ministry's Unit for Criminal Intelligence and Analysis keeps national police records.
