Sarah Everard murder

Zara Aleena's aunt calls for law creating duty to act when someone is in danger

It follows a report by Lady Elish Angiolini into the prevention of sexually motivated crimes against women in public.

The report, four years after the 33-year-old's murder, says urgent action is needed to prevent violent, sexual attacks against women.

She says the family has been left with "an overwhelming sense of loss and of what might have been".

Supt Katherine Goodwin says the Everard case marked a "monumental shift" in the Metropolitan Police.

The new measures will close a "glaring gap in the law", Met Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley said.

The survey is part of the Angiolini Inquiry into the murder of Sarah Everard by Wayne Couzens.

The Justice for Victims group is calling for perpetrators of violent crimes to be jailed for longer.

The force was under special measures for two and a half years following a series of scandals.
