Change the custody laws for domestic violence cases.

Petition Details

To change the law for domestic violence cases, so that the perpetrators are held in custody until the final sentencing.

Additional Information

Because of the number of cases where the perpetrators continue to interfere and intimidate the victims to try to make them drop the charges. Also because they aren't provided with police protection while waiting for the court date, they are repeatedly attacked or their life is threatened by the perpetrators.
