1 in 4 knows a female victim of violence
The Metro has also drawn attention to the wider issue of violence against women. A new survey suggests that nearly a quarter of people in the UK personally know a woman or girl who has suffered domestic abuse in the past year. Woman’s Aid chief executive Farah Nazeer has called this a “national emergency.”
This case has sparked further conversations about domestic abuse, violence against women, and the influence of online figures on young men.
