Hannah reveals partner drugged and filmed her during their relationship
- Hannah endured severe physical abuse and control tactics from her partner for ten years.
- After separation, she faced stalking and continuous harassment despite legal protection.
- Her experience highlights the challenges of addressing psychological and sexual abuse in legal contexts.
In a disturbing account, domestic abuse survivor Hannah describes her harrowing experience of being in a controlling and violent relationship in the UK. Over the course of a decade, her partner physically attacked her at least once or twice a week, often ensuring that the injuries were hidden from view. After leaving him, Hannah faced continued harassment, including breaches of court orders intended to protect her. Most alarming was the admission from her ex-partner that he had secretly recorded her after drugging her drink, which left her feeling violated and degraded. Despite efforts to take action against this ongoing abuse, including seeking police help for the recordings, complexities arose when the evidence was deemed irrelevant to her domestic abuse case. The negative impact of her relationship continues to affect her post-separation, with her ex-partner stalking her and exhibiting troubling behaviors that threaten her sense of safety.
