Security measures to protect women
Women can be susceptible to sexual offenses, burglary or sexual offenses, snatching, stalking, and spousal violence.
I do not know when, where or how crime will happen to you. A little care for you can help prevent crime.
Protect yourself from sexual offenses and housebreaking crimes
Criminals seek women who live alone or at home where women are the only ones at home, and at night, in low-traffic areas and behind women, for crime opportunities.
Crime prevention points when going out
- Avoid walking alone on dark, low-traffic roads at night, and use taxis.
- Walking while listening to cell phone calls, emails and music can be distracting and dangerous.
- If you feel danger, ask for help loudly or use a security buzzer.
- Carry baggage such as bags in the other side of the road.
Crime prevention points when returning home or at home
- If there is a visitor, check your status and requirements before opening the door.
- Be careful of your surroundings when you return home and open the front door.
- When going out or going to bed, remember to lock the doors and windows.
- Dry your underwear where it is not visible.
Don't worry alone, talk before things get serious.
Protect yourself from "stalkers"
Stalkers approach women by various means. The act may escalate and lead to a violent crime.
Security point
- Let the actors know clearly about your refusal.
- Be careful when managing your personal information.
- Record the contents of telephone calls and e-mails, and keep all slurs in the letters.
Protect yourself from spousal violence
Even spouses, violence against the body and threats to life are crimes.
The law has a "protection order system" to protect victims from spousal violence.
