Human rights angle
\nHRNW emphasizes that prompt, dignified and effective legal and medical support for survivors of sexual violence is a core state responsibility. Failure or delay by authorities to register complaints and provide protection can place survivors at grave risk. Such incidents require impartial, timely investigations and appropriate remedies, while ensuring the victim\u2019s family receives necessary support and safeguards.<\/p>\n
