Al-Samit reports 36% drop in domestic violence
The number of cases of domestic violence registered with the Public Prosecution decreased by 36% during the first six months of the implementation of the Domestic Violence Protection Law, with a reduction of 365 cases, from 1,011 cases in the same period of 2025 to 646 cases in 2026. This decline is attributed to the law's impact, which provided special protections for the most vulnerable groups within the family, while ensuring that complaints cannot be withdrawn or settled in cases of sexual assault and domestic violence involving children and parents. The minister affirms that this decrease indicates the effectiveness of the legislation, as efforts continue to monitor and develop procedures to protect families and strengthen social stability.
