The new Gewaltschutzgesetz, supported by the ruling coalition of Union and SPD, as well as the AfD and the Greens, allows family courts to mandate electronic monitoring for individuals who violate restraining orders. Additionally, offenders may be required to participate in anti-violence training following incidents of physical assault or serious threats. Federal Justice Minister Hubig emphasized the law’s role in enhancing protection for victims, highlighting the urgent need to address domestic violence, which disproportionately affects women, with nearly 80% of victims being female. This legislation aims to combat the longstanding perception of domestic violence as a mere familial issue, recognizing it as a widespread societal problem rooted in structural issues and harmful stereotypes.
