KUALA LUMPUR: An average of nine cases of domestic abuse and sexual assault have been recorded by police each day since 2010, said the Prime Minister's wife Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor.

“Based on the latest police statistics, we found that there have been 9,314 domestic abuse and sexual assault cases since 2010. The reason that these statistics must be shared is because violence against women is a universal problem that cuts across region, religion, race and culture and affects women across the globe.
