Chief Criminal Investigation Commissioner reads from book about domestic violence

On March 7, at 7.30 p.m., a reading from the book "Scars fades, but remain for a lifetime" will take place in the Humboldt Library in Berlin. The author of the book, chief criminal commissioner Udo Martens, looked after women who were victims of domestic violence and summarized their stories in his book. The reading is reported by a witness live about her experiences, of the fear of being found again and the fear of new violence.

daily police work in cases of domestic violence is a challenge, as Harald Muschner emphasizes. Martens is committed to protecting the women concerned and pointing out the difficulties and errors in the system.

The important topic of “violence against women” is kept publicly present by Martens' book and events such as them and sensitizes society for a topic that often only gets into the light of the public when bad things have already happened.

The reading is moderated by Swantje von Massenbach, journalist and TV presenter. The event takes place in cooperation with the equal opportunities officer in the Reinickendorf district office of Berlin and is an event for international women's day.
