Landmark fatal strangulation study finds 68% of victims are women, with most killers partners or exes
The study was the first of its kind in Australia.
A study of fatal strangulation cases over 20 years has found 68% of victims are women and that previous intimate partner violence is linked with increased risk of deaths.
The first Australian study of its kind also showed nearly 90% of strangulation victims were killed by someone they knew and 88.5% of perpetrators were men.
