The We Will Stop Femicide Platform (KCDP) published the figures related to male violence for the month of June. According to the report, men killed 22 women, while 27 died under suspicious circumstances.

According to the report, most of the women were killed because they wanted a divorce, refused to reconcile, refused to marry or have a relationship, wanted to make a decision about their own life. The reason why 13 women were murdered could not be established.

The report said that “the inability to determine the reason for the killing of 13 women is a result of the attempt to hide the violence against women and femicides. Unless it is determined by whom and why women were killed, a fair trial will not be carried out, suspects and murderers are not given deterrent punishments, and preventive measures are not implemented, the violence will continue to increase.”

'Deaths under suspicious circumstances must be clarified'

The KCDP noted that there has been a very serious increase in the number of women who died under suspicious circumstances. These deaths were presented as suicides or natural deaths. In June, 27 women died under suspicious circumstances.

The statement said: "Women’s deaths in suspicious circumstances, unfortunately, can be even more challenging than femicides. It is necessary to expose whether women were killed, or really died by accident, or whether their death was gender-based or if they committed suicide or were driven to suicide.”
