It is estimated that between 9000 and 14,000 women die in Russia every year as a result of domestic violence. That equates to at least 1 woman being killed every hour. This is just an estimate as the authorities don't keep centralised figures on domestic abuse. One reason for this is that there is no law in Russia that specifically deals with domestic violence. There are concerns also that there aren’t enough shelters for women who are fleeing a violent situation. Angela MacLean reports from Russia.

Thathas a' dèanamh dheth gu bheil eadar 9000 agus 14,000 boireannach a' bàsachadh sa Ruis a h-uile bliadhna an dèidh dhaibh a bhith air an dochann san dachaigh. Sin còrr is aon bhoireannach air a marbhadh gach uair a thìde. Chan eil ann an seo ach tuairmse leis nach eil na h-ùghdarrasan a' cumail figearan coileanta mu fhòirneart san dachaigh. Aon adhbhar airson sin se nach eil lagh sa Ruis a tha gu sònraichte ag amas dèiligeadh ri dochann san dachaigh. Tha gearainean ann cuideachd nach eil nach eil ionadan-fasgaidh gu leòr ann do bhoireannaich a tha a' teicheadh bho shuidheachadh fòirneartach. Chaidh Angela Nic'Illeathain dhan Ruis a’ rannsachadh na cùise.
