That is not true. If a member of the 'battered' partner's family, a work colleague, or indeed a neighbour KNOWS of Domestic Abuse, and they call the Police, then the Police can investigate and prosecute whether the victim cooperates or not.
In addition BOTS, ALL abuse is unacceptable, but there is a vast difference between individual cases of 'Domestic Abuse' - no matter how widespread - than there is in 'Institutional' abuse of wives, as in Muslim culture and as 'Sanctioned and Mandated' by Sharia Courts.
This is NOT an anti-Muslim issue, it is an anti-Abuse of women issue.
