Figures on calls of violence against women to 911 The report of the Executive Secretariat of the National Security System Publica points out in its document, “Information on Violence against Women”, that the calls they take into account for their reports are the percentage of actual reports. Although no increase was reported in the investigation folders for femicides and intentional injuries against women, emergency calls related to incidents of violence against women did increase 60.7% in March 2020, compared to the similar month of the previous year. ![\\"Graphic](\\" content/uploads/2020/05/Graphic-calls.png?resize=696%2C503&ssl=1\\") The document, which reflects a 2.32 percent increase in calls to emergency service compared to the period of January-March 2019, in addition details that calls for family violence and gender violence in all its modalities other than family violence, according to reports of the SESNSP, registered increases of 23.4 and 100.7 percent respectively. It is worth mentioning that only gender violence in all its forms increased in crimes from 147 to 295, in March 2020, compared to the same month of 2019. What feminist organizations in the country say In an interview for Verificado, Verónica Cruz, from the feminist collective Las Libres stated that the number of calls to 911 reporting violence partner, domestic violence increased in March of this year. > “Obviously, intimate partner and family violence was going to be exacerbated, in > houses, due to the entire confinement situation. More job losses, more > stress, plus having double and triple jobs” Verónica Cruz added that it is false to claim that 9 out of 10 calls to 911 denouncing gender violence are false. Likewise, he commented that the percentage indicates that 77% of total calls are inappropriate, although this figure includes all calls to 911, not just those that report gender violence. > “Of course the calls are not fake, that is, we do not doubt and also > we know that many people call 911 trying to make or prank calls > that actually do not correspond to a problem, but we are not > talking about the calls women make to 911. Most > women who dare to call is because they are in a serious situation, and the > police must urgently respond to the call.” Likewise, Guadalupe Ramos of the Latin American and Caribbean Committee for the Defense of Women's Rights, assured that the problem is not only in the disinformation of the president's assertion, but rather that he also It disqualifies the public complaints made by women. The truth is that even though calls have increased, they still There is a large part of violated women who do not dare to take the phone for being locked up with their attackers. Guadalupe Ramos expresses that “At no time did they take these (health) measures with the perspective of gender and looking at the circumstances that thousands of women live in the country, who were taken to confinement with their own aggressors” > “The worst thing about the case is that there is no follow-up on the calls, they are just > calls and what happened to the women? Nobody knows” said Verónica Cruz before > to end the interview, implying that statements such as said > today by the president, they minimize gender violence, which is a problem > latent in the country that claims around 10 lives per day. *Similar themes * 911 * AMLO * Coronavirus Mexico * emergency * fake * Feminism * The Free * Morning * women * SESNSP * violence * gender violence ![\\"Verified\\"](\\" content/litespeed/avatar/9aaf97667ba11278f401ee832be280ef.jpg?ver=1727710310\\") Verified Share Facebook Twitter Pinterest WhatsApp #### What do we do at verified?
