HOW TO READ THIS MAP

Colour is the incident. Status is the evidence.

Each marker is placed at the town where a case was documented. The colour shows the type of incident; the status label tells you how far verification has gone — from a first report through review, verification and escalation, to a resolved case.

Reported

Received from a community member or partner; not yet checked.

Verified

Corroborated by at least two independent sources.

Under review

Field officers are gathering statements and evidence.

Resolved

Intervention complete and case closed with follow-up.

Escalated

Referred to police, state authorities or legal counsel.

SAFETY GUIDANCE

  • Do not join or film a crowd attack — call the police (112) and move to a safe distance.
  • If you are accused, ask loudly to be taken to the nearest police station; refuse to be moved elsewhere.
  • Record names of witnesses and the exact location — it is the evidence that protects the accused later.
  • Report the incident to the Foundation within 24 hours so legal aid can be mobilised.

Emergency line: 112 (national). The Foundation's helpline number is being finalised and will be published here.
