PSNI Arresto migliaia di persone in base alla legislazione sulla violenza domestica

*The PSNI seem to be making good inroads to reducing the men who do this* horrendous *crime.*

On average, there were 84 arrests each month for the domestic abuse offence, 19 for the offences of stalking and threatening and abusive behaviour, and 76 each month for non-fatal strangulation.

In the 12 months up to the end of July, police recorded 21,729 offences classified as Violence Against Women and Girls, down 4% on the previous year.

The scale of domestic violence is much higher than official figures suggest as it is known that many women do not report abuse.

Of the people arrested in August during the Belfast race rioting, [almost 50%](https://thedetail.tv/articles/almost-half-ni-race-rioters-reported-for-domestic-abuse) had previous arrests for domestic violence.
