The shadow pandemic : stopping coercive and controlling behaviour in intimate relationships / Iqra Khalid, chair.: XC66-1/1-432-9E-PDF
"Domestic violence is a serious violation of human rights that contributes to gender inequality. It can be defined as “any form of abuse, mistreatment or neglect that a child or adult experiences from a family member, or from someone with whom they have an intimate relationship.” As explained by the witnesses, domestic violence typically manifests within a context of coercive and controlling behaviour. Although coercive and controlling behaviour is not exclusive to intimate relationships, it “is present in 95% of relationships where there's domestic violence”"--Page 4.
