Our Approach
Domestic abuse is a serious problem, and the States of Jersey Police is determined to tackle it.
All complaints will be fully investigated and, unless there is a good reason for not doing so, officers will arrest any individuals who are found to be abusing their partners – even if the victim of the abuse refuses to make a statement or give evidence in court.
This applies equally to men and women and individuals in same sex relationships.
It is our responsibility to provide an efficient and effective service that inspires public confidence and trust.
We will provide an efficient and effective response when people need our help.
In delivering this commitment we will protect vulnerable people against abuse, neglect and exploitation, investigate crimes and, wherever possible, bring criminals to justice and provide a high standard of service to victims and witnesses of crime.
If you are a victim we may work together and share information confidentially with other agencies if we think they can provide you with specialised support.
