Concerns the associated received was modestly communicated to health care, police and support systems. If they nevertheless conveyed concern, they experienced the seriousness of the situation was not understood by the public bodies they approached, says Bo Vatnar VG.

While the public believe that the threshold for contact is low, is it actually high for victims and related parties.

– we risk leaving that violence and murder risk is considered too low at first point of contact because we who receives the information believe that the threshold is lower than it actually is, explains Bo Vatnar.
