Politiediensten in Oost- en West-Vlaanderen reported in 490 alarm buttons for slachtoffers van stalking. Het gaat om a small button that brings the noodcentrale op de hoogte when someone wants you. The gps coordinates have been discreetly verstuurd, so that agents can come as soon as possible. Op termijn moet het stalking alarm also been sent to other provinces.

Federal minister of justice Vincent Van Quickenborne (Open Vld) and minister of inland countries Zaken Annelies Verlinden (CD&V) stand at the end of the day in Oudenaarde. The stalking alarm is connected to a smartphone via Bluetooth. The doet de noodoproep, warna de politie in less than tien minutes ter places come from slachtoffer and eventueel children in veiligheid te brengen.

Profproject

A project project in Ghent heeft de voorbije jaren zijn nut bewezen, zeggen de ministers. Veertig slachtoffers, most of the time between 30 and 40 years, generate a stalking alarm. This resulted in 21 alarm procedures and 10 arrests. The evaluation of the project is also up to 90 percent of the amount that is added to the total area with the print button on the clock. 70 percent van de slachtoffers deed na zes maanden geen aangifte sea. Het small toestel heeft waarschijnlijk dus also een afschrikkend effect.

In Belgium, registreert de politie jaarlijks meer dan 20,000 aangiftes van stalking, vaak by ex-partners.
