From FEMM Newsletter - April 2011:
"Women and girls represent a large proportion of the victims of organised
crime, especially as regards crimes against persons. Organised crime can affect
women in different ways, as victims, as well as being involved in crime
directly or via family members. The Draft Opinion calls for better protection
of female fictims, as well as the promotion of the role of women in fighting
organised crime."
