“According to the Law of the Kyrgyz Republic on Protection and Protection from Family Violence, family violence is intentional acts of a physical, psychological, economic nature or their threat, as well as neglect committed by one family member against another family member. A temporary protection order is a document that provides state protection to a victim of domestic violence and entails the application of measures of influence defined by this Law to a person who has committed domestic violence.; A victim of family violence is a family member or a person equated to a family member against whom family violence has been committed, as well as a minor who has witnessed family violence; “

“The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) aim countries to eliminate discrimination, all forms of violence against women and girls, and ensure the realization of equal rights and equal opportunities in all spheres of life. This methodology was developed in order to monitor the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the Kyrgyz Republic, namely Goal 5 “Ensuring gender equality and empowerment of all women and girls”. The most important mechanism of the law on protection and protection from family violence is a temporary protective order designed to provide immediate protection to the victim. The basis for issuing a temporary protection order is to report the fact of domestic violence to the internal affairs authorities from any person. A temporary protection order prohibits a perpetrator from committing domestic violence and from having direct and indirect contact with a victim of domestic violence. “

According to the Law of the Kyrgyz Republic on Protection and Protection from Family Violence, family violence is intentional acts of a physical, psychological, economic nature or their threat, as well as neglect committed by one family member against another family member. A temporary protection order is a document that provides state protection to a victim of domestic violence and entails the application of measures of influence defined by this Law to a person who has committed domestic violence.; A victim of family violence is a family member or a person equated to a family member against whom family violence has been committed, as well as a minor who has witnessed family violence.; In addition to restricting the rapist’s actions, which may affect the continuation of domestic violence, a protective court order makes it possible to quickly implement legal procedures to forcibly separate the rapist from the family for a certain period of time. Thus, it is not the victim who leaves the house, which usually happens in practice, but the perpetrator of domestic violence. A temporary protection order must be issued for a period of three days by the internal affairs body at the place of residence of the person who committed domestic violence, within twenty-four hours from the moment the fact of the commission of family violence is established; At the request of the person who suffered from family violence, the internal affairs body extends the temporary protection order for thirty days. (paragraph 1.2 of Article 27 of the Law on Protection and Protection from Family Violence). A protective order can be issued to any family member who has suffered violence: a spouse, including unmarried and divorced, a child, or a parent.

The indicator is calculated on the basis of administrative data on victims of domestic violence, according to the internal analytical reports of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Kyrgyz Republic, registered in the Unified Register of Crimes (ERP).
