Hi, I’m Raj
Survivor of domestic abuse, forced marriages and attempted murder
Over 20 years I stayed silent. Not because I had nothing to say, but because I was told I would die if I did.
Having barely escaped with my life after horrific acts of domestic abuse and sexual violence, plus two failed forced marriage attempts, all committed by the people I was meant to trust, my own family members and then suffering abuse and attempted murder and at the hands of my ex-partner, I stand here today proud to have taken back the voice that was so viciously stolen from me.
