It has been established that in Austria the police are empowered to evict offenders and impose prohibition orders.

In the Republic of Bulgaria, such a form of punishment is provided as public condemnation, which is manifested in the public condemnation of the violator before the labor collective in which he works or before the organization of which he is a member. It was found that the practice of cooperation between the police and the community in overcoming the problem of domestic violence, which is regulated by the Claire Act, is relevant. In the Federal Republic of Germany, domestic violence is not only aggressive and violent acts between a woman and a man, but also between children, parents, sisters and brothers. It is emphasized that in the Republic of Poland the public condemnation of the criminal act of the offender is a positive experience, because for offenders it is more unpleasant to condemn society than legal responsibility.
