Protect Yourself Legally: How a Protection Order Works in South Africa
If you are facing domestic violence, harassment, or threats, obtaining a protection order is one of the most effective ways to ensure your safety. In South Africa, the law provides a mechanism through the Protection from Harassment Act and the Domestic Violence Act to help individuals protect themselves from harm.
