In the exam (Norwegian)
En mann slår kona si hjemme. Hun vil ikke anmelde ham. Kan politiet likevel etterforske saken?
- aNo, violence in the home is a private matter that the family must settle among themselvesNei, vold i hjemmet er en privat sak som familien selv må løse seg imellom
- bYes, violence in the family is a criminal offence, and the police can investigate without a reportJa, vold i familien er straffbart, og politiet kan etterforske uten anmeldelseCorrect answer
- cNo, the police can only investigate if the wife reports it herself and gives them permissionNei, politiet kan bare etterforske hvis kona selv anmelder og gir dem lov
Why?
Abusing someone in the family is a serious crime. The police can investigate and take the case further even if the person who was abused does not report it.
