Annotation:
In this report, The Committee recognizes
Cambodia's adoption of the Law on Prevention
of Domestic Violence Protection of Victims,
but expresses concern over the continuing
high levels of violence against women and
girls that is accompanied by gender-biased
attitudes blaming the victim and limiting her
options and support. The Committee recommends
that Domestic Violence Law be strictly
enforced and prosecuted and that the State
party take steps to increase gender equality
in all aspects of its law and policy. The
Committee further requests a detailed update
to follow in the State partys next periodic
report.
