Woman nearly killed by ex-partner hits out at `ridiculous´ change to `lenient´ prison sentences for abusers
(World News UK)
 


A woman who almost died when her former partner attacked her with a meat cleaver has hit out at the government´s new scheme which allows victims of domestic abuse to challenge sentences given to their perpetrators. New measures which come into force on Tuesday will overhaul the existing Unduly Lenient Sentence Scheme which is already in force for crimes such as murder, rape and terrorism. The government has added 14 new offences to the scheme - with domestic abuse, stalking, coercive and controlling behaviour, child sexual abuse, harassment, taking, disseminating and publishing indecent images of children among the new offences now included.
