It comes after the MEN reported that rape victims in Greater Manchester were being failed by the criminal justice system
Greater Manchester Police have issued an important message to victims experiencing domestic or sexual abuse - as the number of arrests made by the force surged.
In a message direct to survivors of domestic and sexual abuse, the force's Head of Public Protection, Michaela Kerr, reassured victims that the police force will take them seriously, and ensure they receive the correct support. She told of how a GMP officer dismissed her fears and told her to meet her alleged attacker and 'set the record straight.' Meanwhile, the force was also ordered to pay £2,800 in damages to a homeless woman.
Detective Chief Superintendent Kerr acknowledged what whilst the improved arrest rate confirmed that the force is serious to tackling domestic and sexual abuse, there is still room for further improvement.
