In the instances where domestic violence victims are too afraid to report abuse, activists are calling on the Government to make law external party reports on domestic violence, which would give the police the right to intervene to save a life. The call comes in the wake of the country’s fourth domestic violence-related killing for 2021, in which 53-year-old Karen Rauseo was allegedly beaten to death by a close male relative on Tuesday. Her death came after numerous reports to the police by family members about abuse they said Rauseo endured repeatedly. But it was also reported that Rauseo had never made any police reports nor applied for any protection order because she was too afraid.
