This report examines a series of lethal incidents involving women and children across multiple jurisdictions, highlighting systemic failures in protection and the persistence of sociocultural drivers of violence.

本報告分析了多個司法管轄區內涉及女性與兒童的一系列致命事件，突顯了保護機制的系統性失效，以及社會文化因素對暴力的持續影響。

The death of Twisha Sharma in Bhopal serves as a primary case study in the intersection of judicial influence and domestic abuse. While the accused—a lawyer and a retired judge—assert the death was a suicide linked to substance abuse, the victim's family alleges dowry-related harassment. The subsequent judicial intervention by the Supreme Court of India, which mandated a second autopsy by AIIMS Delhi and cautioned the media against narrative-driven reporting, underscores concerns regarding institutional bias and procedural irregularities. This case reflects a broader statistical trend in India, where the National Crime Records Bureau reported 5,737 dowry-related deaths in 2024, suggesting a failure of the 1961 dowry prohibition laws to curb the practice.

Twisha Sharma 在波帕利的死亡，是研究司法影響與家庭暴力交織的主要個案。被告（一名律師與一名退休法官）主張死者是因為物質濫用而自殺，但受害者家屬則指控與嫁妝相關的騷擾。隨後印度最高法院介入，要求德里 AIIMS 進行第二次驗屍，並警告媒體避免採取敘事導向的報導，這凸顯了對體制偏見與程序不正常之擔憂。此案例反映了印度更廣泛的統計趨勢，國家犯罪記錄局報告 2024 年共有 5,737 宗與嫁妝相關的死亡事件，顯示 1961 年的禁嫁妝法未能有效遏制此類行為。

Parallel patterns of lethal domesticity are evident in other regions. In Afghanistan, the Taliban's restrictive legal framework and the prevailing humanitarian crisis have institutionalized discrimination. Reports indicate that the current Criminal Procedure Code provides minimal penalties for domestic battery, effectively invisibilizing violence. The case of 18-year-old Farzana, who was murdered after a forced marriage to an older man, illustrates how economic desperation and informal tribal mediation systems preclude legal recourse for women. Similarly, in Pakistan, the execution of a newlywed couple in Karachi following their legal validation of marriage demonstrates the lethal application of 'honor' codes when marital choices deviate from familial expectations.

其他地區也出現了類似的致命家庭暴力模式。在阿富汗，塔利班限制性的法律框架與普遍的人道危機使歧視制度化。報告指出，現行的刑事訴訟法對家庭暴力處罰極輕，實際上使暴力變得不可見。18 歲的 Farzana 在被強迫嫁給一名年長男子後被謀殺，此案說明了經濟絕望與非正式的部落調解系統如何使女性無法獲得法律救濟。

Further instances of femicide and infanticide highlight the volatility of domestic environments. In the United Kingdom, the death of Harshita Brella occurred despite the existence of a domestic violence protection order, raising questions about the efficacy of current safeguarding protocols. In India, cases such as the suicide of Anu Meena in Jaipur and the murder of a 12-year-old in Kashmir further attest to the prevalence of physical and sexual violence. Additionally, the recovery of an infant's remains in Nova Scotia, Canada, and the strangulation of a 10-month-old in Delhi—attributed by the perpetrator to financial distress—demonstrate the extreme manifestations of domestic instability across diverse socioeconomic strata.

更多殺害女性與殺嬰的案例凸顯了家庭環境的不穩定性。在英國，儘管存在家庭暴力保護令，Harshita Brella 仍不幸死亡，引發對現行保護協議效能的質疑。在印度，如齋浦爾的 Anu Meena 自殺以及克什米爾一名 12 歲兒童被謀殺，進一步證明了肢體與性暴力的普遍性。此外，加拿大新斯科舍省發現嬰兒遺骸，以及德里一名 10 個月大嬰兒被勒死（兇手歸因於經濟壓力），展示了不同社會經濟階層中家庭不穩定所導致的極端表現。

The current global landscape is characterized by a persistent gap between statutory protections and the lived reality of vulnerable populations, where domestic spheres frequently remain sites of unmonitored violence.

目前的全球格局特徵在於，法定保護與弱勢群體的實際生活現實之間仍存在持續差距，家庭空間往往仍是缺乏監控的暴力之地。
