The statistical definition contains three elements that characterize the killing of a person as “intentional homicide”:
1. The killing of a person by another person (objective element).
2. The intent of the perpetrator to kill or seriously injure the victim (subjective element).
3. The unlawfulness of the killing (legal element).
For recording purposes, all killings that meet the criteria listed above are to be considered intentional homicides, irrespective of definitions provided by national legislations or practices. Killings as a result of terrorist activities are also to be classified as a form of intentional homicide.
