Mother of femicide victim demands justice in Dominican Republic
A new case of femicide has shocked the Dominican Republic. A woman has lost her life allegedly at the hands of her romantic partner, who refused to accept the separation and pursued her constantly.
According to statements made by the victim's mother and reported by Infobae, the young woman had expressed her wish to end the relationship, but the aggressor refused to leave her alone. The victim's mother is now demanding that authorities act firmly to clarify the facts and punish those responsible.
The case adds to the alarming list of feminicides recorded in the Caribbean country, where women's rights organisations have repeatedly denounced the lack of effective protection for victims of gender-based violence.
