More than 80 alleged stalkers have been arrested in the first year since new legislation criminalised the offence in Northern Ireland, PoliceServiceNI say
The new law brought Northern Ireland into line with others parts of the UK where anti-stalking laws were already in place
"On one occasion I had 155 WhatsApp messages in a few hours and was also receiving messages on two other platforms at the same time." "Stalking can actually take many forms and can be online as well as in person and could be someone known to you or a complete stranger."Det Supt Fisher described it as "an insidious crime that takes over and destroys lives."
"We don't want victims to suffer in silence. Stalking is a crime, which will not be tolerated or accepted within our communities.
