AMMAN – Eliminating community violence and combating behavioural deviations starts with the family, society’s first safety valve, Interior Minister Hussein Majali said Thursday.

He made his remarks at a meeting with directors of a number of public and non-government institutions concerned with human rights.

Discussions covered ways to improve coordination in light of the “growing number” of crimes against children by family members.

Majali called for diagnosing the problem and all the social, economic, educational and legal aspects behind it in order to find appropriate solutions.
