The arrest of suspects
When someone turns to the police to report a domestic violence case, police should be able to arrest the abuser at that moment because not arresting the abuser at the moment may result worst to the victim. Victims of domestic violence should be aware of their rights and protections and offenders should face tougher punishments in the courts. When women victims are aware of their rights they are more confident to report if there is any case of aggression in their homes because there are some cases where women dont do anything about it because they feel they are better off with a violent husband than facing the challenge of raising on their own.
