women of Asian heritage who are driven to take their lives
often have been victims of abuse from an identifiable abuser


Asian-heritage women choose to stay in abusive environments. If some
of them don't understand enough about British culture or the English
language to go to the police or social services before they reach the
stage of stepping in front of a train, the questions to be asked are
why don't they understand those things?


They may not even understand the language. How on earth do you suppose
they are meant to understand the support structures? NB There is ample
information about specific cases out there if you actually do wish to
become informed, rather than to engage in wordplay.
