The scale of abuse-related suicides shows the devastating impact of abuse on victims' mental health.

Alongside improvements in the mental health support available to victims, there is a need for a step change in the sentencing framework.

We know from our work at the frontline that Black, minoritised and migrant victims of VAWG are continually let down by the system.

Such reports contribute to victims' loss of trust in the system and can impede them from coming forward.

We intend to follow this case closely.

We stand with @SELMATAHA and her friends, who not only endured a racist attack, but are now facing a legal battle as a result. Criminalising victims of racism in this way is appalling. #IStandWithSelmaTaha

We stand in solidarity with Selma Taha Southall Black Sisters

Please read the statement outlining the appalling developments since the #racist attack.

The first appearance in court will be on 11 April 2024, at Highbury Magistrates Court.
 
Gather in solidarity from 9am #EndRacistAbuse

Our hearts are with Kulsuma Akter's loved ones.

We are outraged that the accused was granted bail despite having assaulted and threatened to kill her. Her homicide is another example of women being let down due to systemic failure to treat MVAWG with the seriousness it deserves.

Thank you to One Law for All for their support of @selmataha8 who is being criminalised for resisting racism and Southall Black Sisters
