Human rights activists: more than 70% of women who died from violence during the pandemic were killed by partners or relatives

According to a study by the Consortium of Women's Non-Governmental Organizations, more than 70% of women killed during the pandemic died from domestic violence.

Human rights defenders studied 11,175 published convictions for 2020 and 2021 and found 3,759 convictions for the murder of women, of which 2,680 cases involved murder by a partner or relative.

At the same time, according to the authors of the study, the proportion of women killed as a result of domestic violence has increased significantly over the two coronavirus years. From 2011 to 2019, this figure was at the level of 65%, in 2020 it was 70.9%, and in 2021 — 71.7%. jpg» class=»mz-publish-context-cite__image» alt=»1″ />ArticleIsolation with the aggressor. What happens to victims of domestic violence during quarantine

Of the total number of victims of domestic violence, 92.5% of women in 2020 and 92.8% in 2021 were killed by partners and husbands. The rest are relatives.

The project recorded the highest level of domestic violence in St. Petersburg, the Perm Territory, Omsk, Kurgan and Moscow regions.

The Consortium notes that the situation with support for victims of domestic violence during the pandemic in Russia was complicated not only by the lack of a legislative framework in this area and the lack of crisis centers and shelters for women. The study says that the work of most government services and institutions was aimed primarily at combating the pandemic. The police in a number of regions suspended personal receptions, and special detention centers were closed for quarantine. Many trauma centers were redesigned to fight the coronavirus, so victims of domestic violence could not receive timely medical care.
