ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!
Another woman.
Another family shattered.
Another name added to a list that should never have existed.
Over the past weeks, multiple women across Gauteng have lost their lives in circumstances that have left communities grieving, frightened, angry and demanding answers. Behind every headline is a woman who was someone’s daughter, mother, sister, friend, colleague — but she was also someone who had a life, a future, hopes and dreams.
And we cannot allow these women to become just another part of a statistic.
We are angry. We are heartbroken. And we are standing with women.
At Albasini Attorneys we believe that every woman has the fundamental right to live free from violence, intimidation and fear. She has the right to walk, work, run, travel, love, leave, speak, say no and simply exist — without having to calculate whether she will make it home safely.
Women should not have to change their routines, avoid certain places, share their locations, travel in groups or live in a constant state of fear just to stay alive.
The burden of preventing violence cannot be placed on women.
We stand in solidarity with every woman who has experienced gender-based violence.
We stand with every survivor whose voice was ignored.
We stand with every family grieving a woman they will never get back.
And we stand with every woman who is simply asking for what should never have been too much to ask:
SAFETY. DIGNITY. EQUALITY. JUSTICE.
Let us remember the women behind the headlines.
Let us refuse to become numb.
Let us refuse to accept violence against women as “just the way things are.”
Because it isn't.
A woman's life is not disposable.
Her safety is not a privilege.
Her freedom is not negotiable.
And her voice deserves to be heard.
Today, we stand with her.
And we will continue to stand with her.
