Domestic violence or domestic abuse takes on various forms and the act of domestic violence may be committed in a variety of domestic relationships. The forms of domestic violence may include physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional, verbal and psychological abuse, intimidation, harassment, stalking, damage to property, entry into the complainant’s house without consent, where the parties do not share the same residence, or any other controlling of abusive behaviour towards the complainant.

As the ‘complainant’ you will have to make a sworn statement known as an affidavit and complete an application form at your nearest police station. Protection order applications do not have to be made by the complainant in a matter exclusively but may be brought forward by any other person who may have an interest in the matter. This may include a social worker, a counsellor, a teacher, a health service provider or a member of the police service. You will need to have your full details such as your name, ID number, address, phone number and address for your place of work. The details of the person you are applying for a protection order should you have them would also be beneficial to you as it assists the court and the police in carrying out the process.
