In the wake of increasing hate crimes against the LGBTIQ community, a recent report has called for new inquests and significant improvements in the investigative practices of the New South Wales (NSW) Police.

Hate crimes against the LGBTIQ community have been on the rise, causing deep concern among human rights advocates. These crimes, often violent and brutal, have left the community feeling vulnerable and in need of protection.

The report, compiled by a coalition of human rights organizations, sheds light on the severity and frequency of these hate crimes. It highlights several cases where the victims were targeted solely based on their sexual orientation or gender identity.

The Need for New Inquests

One of the key recommendations of the report is the need for new inquests into unsolved hate crimes. These inquests, the report suggests, could provide closure for the victims’ families and bring the perpetrators to justice.

The report also calls for significant improvements in the investigative practices of the NSW Police. It suggests that the police force needs to be more proactive in investigating hate crimes and more sensitive when dealing with victims from the LGBTIQ community.

The report serves as a stark reminder of the challenges faced by the LGBTIQ community. It is a call to action for the NSW Police and the wider society to stand up against hate crimes and ensure justice for the victims. If implemented, the hope is that these recommendations could lead to a safer and more inclusive society for all.
