The message is clear when the police knock on doors in homes where men are believed to be abusing women they are in a close relationship with: “We know what you are doing and we do not accept it.” Through conversations in which they urge men to stop hitting and women to take measures for their own safety, they hope to prevent murders. “I would dare say that we are pioneers,” says police officer Johann Danielsson.
Anyone who exercises violence against his or her partner can still receive custody or access rights over common children. Minister of Justice Stefanie Hubig wants to change this in the future.
He who beats his partner should no longer be allowed to see his child - or only in the presence of an accompanying person, Justice Minister Hubig told the newspapers of the Funke media group. So far, this is only possible if the child itself is affected by violence.
Those who strike at home will have to expect that their child will no longer be allowed to see - that is what Justice Minister Hubig wants. Children also suffered when the mother was beaten.


If a child is beaten, the parents' right of care and access can be restricted. This should also be possible in the future in the event of violence against partners, according to Minister of Justice Hubig.
