Feminist Fridays #69: Why prosecute a mother for reporting suspected child sexual abuse?

Mother of two, Maya Fuaad, has been charged for “false reporting” after she lodged a police report about her child’s complaint of sexual abuse. Joining us to discuss why this charge against her could set a disconcerting precedent with regard to reporting child sexual abuse, is Yu Ren Chung, the Acting Executive Director of the Women's Aid Organisation.
