If the victim of violence (in 97% of cases they are women) asks for help the police, they come to the home within a few minutes. The police are specially trained in the dynamics of relationships in situations of domestic violence and take such calls very seriously.
The police examine the victim for signs of physical abuse: injuries and bruises, etc. The apartment – for destruction, broken walls with a fist, etc.
If found any evidence, the abuser is arrested and placed in a jail for 24 hours. During these 24 hours, a court case takes place in the presence of a judge. Even if the victim withdraws the report, the state continues to judge the abuser. This amendment came to the law, given that many victims of violence, for a variety of reasons, take the police report back.
Usually, the abuser, for the first time, is served a warning and is obliged to go through 26 sessions of therapy: one hour once a week, that is, this continues for 6 months. Offender pays for therapy out of his pocket.
Volunteering against domestic violence
As part of the Childhood Without Violence campaign, volunteers from many organizations go out to the streets of the city and handed out leaflets to residents asking them to be more attentive to their children.
The leaflets are created and copied with the help of many US lenders. They donate funds from paid payday loans in GA to this charity organization. They attract more and more financial companies to support charity facilities. It doesn’t matter what kind of charity this organization carries out.
Minors are often subjected to both physical and psychological abuse from peers and adults. This attitude leaves an imprint on the future life of the victims: it has a detrimental effect on the physical and mental health of the child. In order to sharpen the attention of children to this problem and to remind them of the possibility of receiving help, the volunteers did not deprive children of leaflets.
Let us remind you that beatings that did not entail bodily harm, intentional infliction of pain, physical or mental suffering, committed against a close relative or family member, if these actions do not contain corpus delicti, entails administrative liability: a fine of up to ten base units or arrest for up to 15 days. Threats of murder, infliction of grievous bodily harm or destruction of property, torture, intentional infliction of bodily harm entails criminal liability: imprisonment for up to 15 years, and intentional unlawful deprivation of the life of another person – imprisonment for up to 25 years.
