The increasing brutalisation of society results in Polish police officers becoming increasingly exposed to threats to their lives and health. In 2016, 311 assaults on police officers took place. A secure police officer equals a secure state and its citizens. This is why it is so important for Polish police forces to be in possession of proper means of physical coercion which ensure their safety while on duty. The Act on means of physical coercion and firearms of 5 June 2013 specifies the range of the means of physical coercion permissible for use by police officers. However, the most important of these are individual means with which a police officer is equipped. Research conducted among Polish police officers demonstrates which individual means of physical coercion available to them are used most frequently for the purpose of ensuring safety on duty. Undoubtedly, the key measure is the object designated by the said law to incapacitate people using electricity, colloquially referred to as an electric stun gun, a stunner or a taser. This measure of direct coercion, present in the equipment of the Polish Police since 2007, is gaining in importance, as evidenced by the conducted research and the data on the use of electric stunner by police officers.

The ultimate aim of introducing this paper is to control or prevent the crime against them. We propose a stun gun technology-based women safety dress with GPS. This method consists of a system that provides physical security in the case when the women are harassed or whether she is in trouble. In this paper, we proposed an ATMEGA controller and an android application in which both the device and mobile phone are synchronized using the ESP module. This paper will prove to be very useful in saving lives as well as preventing atrocities against women. This system uses a panic key, a boost converter and a GPS module which provides the location of a woman who is in trouble and the stun gun technology which will provide physical protection to the women. If the panic key is pressed, it turns on the system by sending an alert message to the woman’s relatives via android application. The kit is also be accessed by the parents or relatives via the IoT module. At the instance, whenever the panic key is pressed, it provides the high voltage shock pulse to a stranger via the boost converter.

Stun guns are self-protection devices that are increasingly available with few restrictions on their use and sale. We present a case of child abuse with a stun gun. The signs of such abuse are often subtle, and they may be underrecognized currently. The skin lesions that are often seen are hypopigmented circular macules, measuring approximately 0.5 cm in diameter. They may be raised slightly and erythematous if inflicted recently. Most characteristic of stun gun assault is pairing of lesions approximately 5 cm apart. We discuss the design, operation, and effects of stun guns, and give an extensive differential of abusive and nonabusive circular lesions.
