Numbers about domestic abuse.

There are some awful figures I've found on the internet in the middle of my research. 
Some of them might even look fake, as you wouldn't ever believe that amount of women are suffering from abuse and rape every day.

                            
                    

                   

                   

Percentage of women ever experiencing any type of abuse (only those reported!) -  it's coming closer to half of all women living in the area in Southern parts of Africa and in South Asia.
                   
                     Percentage of women, reporting abuse in low and middle income areas.
                                     

P.S. I fully understand there is a possibility that some of the statistics are not as accurate and representative as we want them to be, but there is no physical way I can check whether they are reliable or not, apart from just comparing secondary sources to each other to see if they all agre between themselves.
