In Kazakhstan, a high-profile court case was followed for six months, and ultimately Saltanat Nukenova's murderer was sentenced to 24 years in prison. In Kyrgyzstan, crisis centers are overflowing. In Uzbekistan, parents do not allow daughters fleeing tyrants to return home to avoid being ridiculed. How do victims of domestic violence cope with difficult situations? Why are more and more women speaking out, and do all of them manage to escape their abusers?
