The proposal enjoys support from women's groups
|
Men seen as likely to be violent towards their wives could be forced to wear an electronic tag under a law being debated by the French parliament.
The tag would have to be worn by men who have received a court order to stay away from their partner.
The proposal is part of a draft law on conjugal violence. It has cross-party support and is expected to pass easily.
According to the government, around 160 women in France are murdered by their husbands or partners every year.

Saw this story of a serial killer on TV news and then got the print of it on the net as below.
Few points to note about this story...
-
The teacher's 1st Wife left him because he did not earn enough money for her. Later he married two women and kept them in separate houses. This very well looks like a sort of challenge he took upon himself, that he can keep two; and the 1st wife said he can't her alone!
