Although the state of alarm did not allow the courts of violence against women to be paralyzed in March, the Observatory has denounced that the pandemic has affected and that women who have been confined at home with the aggressor have not been able to do so.
In most cases, it was the victims themselves who presented the complaint, and otherwise their family members.
