Critics demand police chiefs stop pursuing NCHIs
Sunday Mail
|October 26, 2025
POLICE Scotland is under fire over failing to disclose how many controversial non-crime hate incidents it logs amid claims the data is being buried.
The news comes as the force doubled down on continuing to probe non-crime hate incidents (NCHIs) despite the Metropolitan Police vowing to drop them.
Pressure is now mounting on Police Scotland to follow suit, from critics and from within their own ranks. Latest data shows there were 2467 hate crimes in the three months between April/June but in a break with previous policy there were no figures published for the number of contentious NCHIS.
A force report covering April 2024-March 2025, however, showed Police Scotland recorded 912 NCHIs during the period, with 1331 logged during the previous year.
