What should a victim of violence do?

In the exam (French)

Que doit faire une victime de violences ?

  1. aKeep quiet in order to protect their family and their reputationGarder le silence pour protéger sa famille et sa réputation
  2. bWait for the situation to sort itself out, without talking about itAttendre que la situation s'arrange seule, sans en parler
  3. cAsk their family to punish the person responsible themselvesDemander à sa famille de punir elle-même l'auteur des violences
  4. dTalk about it and file a complaint with the police or the gendarmerieEn parler et porter plainte à la police ou à la gendarmerieCorrect answer

Why?

A victim of violence should not stay alone: they can talk to a person they trust, get help from a support organisation (association) and file a complaint at a police station or a gendarmerie. In an emergency, call 17; for domestic violence, call 3919. The victim is never responsible for the violence.
