*Men Are Reluctant To Report GBV Cases Due To Social Stigma: Police* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?pm Police in Bulawayo said that there are very few men who report cases of gender-based violence (GBV) in the city. This was revealed by Bulawayo provincial police spokesperson Chief Inspector Precious Simnango. The number of men who report GBV is very low compared to that of women. It is thought that the major reason for the disparity is the social stigma associated with that since Zimbabwe is a patriarchal society. As a result, most men suffer in silence. There are reports that police officers laugh at male victims of GBV when they report their cases. ---------- Latest itel A06 on Pindula: 32GB storage, 4GB RAM $69 USD WhatsApp: +263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 ---------- Speaking on the sidelines of the launch of the 16 days of Activism against gender-based-violence, Chief Inspector Simango said > We are encouraging men to speak out.
