Anti-stalking, gender violence smartwatch trialled in Rome

(ANSA) - ROME, MAY 14 - An anti-stalking and gender violence smartwatch is set to be trialled in Rome in a pilot scheme agreed by Rome Chief Prosecutor Francesco Lo Voi and local Carabinieri commander General Marco Pecci on Tuesday.
    Stalking and murderous violence against women, mostly by stalkers and exes, are on the rise in Italy.
    The anti femicide smartwatch will be linked straight to the operational centre of Rome Carabinieri's central command, said Lo Voi and Pecci.
    It can be activated directly by the victim when she sees she is in danger, or will go off automatically in the case of violence and attacks. (ANSA).
