Thousands of young women in

the UK

have come together to boycott nightlife clubs and pubs in university towns and villages in protest at the rise in cases of women who have been drugged by putting drugs in their drinks or injecting them without being reported unknown substances, according to British media such as Sky News. One of the proposed actions has been to stay home this Wednesday night in protest.

This campaign started on social media and has had special relevance in cities such as

Bristol, Brighton or Nottingham

.

With the aim of raising awareness in society about the importance of women feeling safe in these spaces and demanding urgent action by the Government and these places to prevent the use of these drugs and cases of rape.

The protests come in response to the sharp increase in recent months in the cases of women who say they inject drugs into their back or leg without them noticing in pubs and discos.

These are cases that have proliferated in recent months after returning to university campuses after a long period of absence due to the coronavirus pandemic.

According to 'The Guardian', the injected substance would be similar to the so-called 'rape drug', which is secretly introduced into the victim's drink to

commit sexual assault

without her remembering anything about what happened the next day.

The British Police say there have been 198 confirmed cases of women who were drugged through their drink in the last two months and 24 cases of women who were injected without realizing it.
