Hi Ladies,

Would like your views and help here.

There is this one Indian lady who posted on an Indian forum that her husband is not allowing her and her child to go back to India. He gets physically and sexually violent. She is scared to approach the police because if they don't help her she is afraid the husband will really ill treat and beat her. She wants contact number of any women support organization who could come and help her out. She called the consulate but they told her that she needs to file a police complaint first.

My question is, is there any support group in Sharjah who can help this woman.

I don't know what information to give her.

Any help on this matter is appreciated.

Thanks

The organisation is Dubai based but they might be able to offer suggestions: http://www.dfwac.ae/ This article although not recent refers to Sharjah and the dfwac. http://gulfnews.com/news/gulf/uae/crime/sharjah-police-tell-women-to-report-abuses-1.515955 HTH x
