As practice shows, crimes committed during emerging family quarrels and conflicts often surpass premeditated, well-prepared criminal acts in their cruelty and the severity of their consequences.
As practice shows, crimes committed during emerging family quarrels and conflicts often surpass premeditated, well-prepared criminal acts in their cruelty and the severity of their consequences. Every third murder and every fourth case of grievous bodily harm is committed within the sphere of family and domestic relations.
Practically one in five deaths from external causes is due to accidental alcohol poisoning. In contrast, one in eight deaths is related to vehicles.
Drunkenness is one of the most negative social phenomena in society, leading to family distress, causing irreparable harm to the institution of the family, hindering the full development of minors, negatively affecting the crime situation, and in some cases leading to tragic consequences.
In order to prevent offenses against the life and health of citizens, especially those committed while intoxicated and within family and domestic relations, to draw the attention of the general public to the problems of violence, and to explain to citizens the necessity of assisting state bodies in minimizing the consequences of offenses, a preventive campaign "Let's Stop Violence Together!" will be held in the Lepel district from February 15 to February 28, 2021.
The main objectives of this event will be, in conjunction with interested departments, to take comprehensive measures aimed at preventing offenses against the life and health of citizens, including those committed within family and domestic relations and while intoxicated.
Family distress cannot be hidden! Some individuals simply try not to notice what does not directly concern them. If you witness family distress, do not wait for a tragedy; call the hotline 102 or 3 20 83, where police officers will provide assistance, and competent specialists from the social adaptation and rehabilitation department will offer psychological and rehabilitation services in the crisis room.
