La violence domestique, débat de société au Maroc.
More than two-thirds of women in Morocco said that they had been physically abused, according to the annual report of the National Observatory of Violence Against Women released in July.
A total of 13,445 women in cities were victims of physical violence in 2014, with 7,962 married women, 3,444 unmarried women and 2,039 divorced women. Housewives represented 53.8% of all victims compared to 54.4% in 2013.
The report was based on statistics from institutions such as the Ministries of Health and Justice, the National Security Directorate (DGSN) and the Royal Gendarmerie.
Sexual violence constitutes 9% of all types of violence suffered by Moroccan women, the report said. More than 60% of the cases of sexual violence were committed against women who were 30 years old or younger, 31% against women aged 31-45 and 7.3% against older women.
The National Observatory of Violence Against Women said that single women were the most affected by this type of violence with 53.6% of cases of sexual violence committed against them. Another 22.9% was against divorced women and 20.1% against married women.
