The International Women’s Resource Network says mental health issues among women are critical.

President of the network Sandrine Rattan, says a targeted approach must be taken to address emotional problems.

According to Ms. Rattan, the issue does not affect women alone.

Ms. Rattan earlier expressed concern for the 2 young sons who are said to have witnessed the incident at the house.

She said they will need counseling but permission must be granted.

The IWRN president said special attention must be paid to all affected parties in situations like these.
