Ban-mharbhadh anns na Dùthchannan Balcanach
Tha sreath de bhoireannaich air a bhith air am
murt len cèilean ann am Bosnia agus Croatia thairis air na bliadhnaichean mu
dheireadh. Chaidh aon mhurt san Lùnastal a chraoladh beò air Instagram. Leis
nach eil figearan oifigeil air a bhith air an cruinneachadh gu cunbhalach,
feumar an leithid fhaighinn bho bhuidhnean carthannais agus eile. Tha pà tran
follaiseach air a thighinn asta sin ge-tà . Tha an à ireamh de chùisean femicide,
sin boireannaich gam marbhadh air sgà th an gnè, ag èirigh. Tha beachd ann gu bheil
ceangal eadar seo agus eachdraidh nan dùthchannan Balcanach, gu h-à raid
cogaidhean nan naochadan. Ann am Bosnia, tha iarrtasan air nochdadh airson
dèiligeadh ri mar a tha a' tachairt agus tha marbhadh bhoireannach a
stèidheachadh mar eucoir fa leth nam measg. Tha an dearbh rud ga mholadh le
Riaghaltas Chroatia an-drà sta ach tha teagamhan ann mu cho èifeachdach 's a
bhiodh gluasad dha leithid. Tha ·¡Ã²°ù±è²¹ a' rannsachadh.
Femicide in the Balkans
A string of women have been murdered by their
intimate partners in Bosnia and Croatia over the last few years. One such
killing in August was live-streamed on Instagram. Official data isn't gathered
regularly and information regarding statistics has to come from NGOs and other
groups. A clear pattern has emerged from those figures. Femicide, the murder of
women because of their gender, is on the rise. Some are of the opinion that
this is connected to the history of the Balkans, especially the wars of the
1990s. In Bosnia, there has been a call to deal with this in part by
introducing femicide into the country's criminal code. That was recently
recommended by the Croatian government but some are unsure how effective such a
measure would prove to be. ·¡Ã²°ù±è²¹ investigates.
