Get a medical report immediately if police turn you away, domestic violence victims advised

PUTRAJAYA: Victims of domestic violence have been advised to go to the hospital and get a medical report on their condition immediately, if they encounter police personnel who refuse to accept their reports on the grounds that it is "a family matter".

"The (medical) report from the hospital can then be used so police cannot refuse to accept their report," said Women, Family and Community Development Minister Datuk Seri Rina Harun (pic) said.
