More than 900 arrests in NSW domestic violence blitz

More than 900 people were arrested and almost 100 guns seized during a four-day blitz in New South Wales targeting those with a history of domestic violence, including a man charged with repeatedly stabbing a woman. 

Across the four days, which started on Wednesday and finished on Saturday, 993 people were arrested and charged, with 299 arrest warrants executed.

NSW Police also seized 94 guns and another 48 weapons during Operation Amarok.

Those arrested include a 28-year-old Fairfield man charged over the assault of a woman who suffered multiple stab wounds, a 51-year-old man charged with intentionally choking a person with recklessness and many others facing stalking, intimidation, assault and drug charges. 

During multiple searches police uncovered and seized a gel blaster pistol, a stun device, a replica firearm and prohibited drugs, including methamphetamine, pills and heroin. 

Police laid 2063 charges and carried out 1847 bail compliance checks and 14,318 apprehended domestic violence order compliance checks, finding 391 breaches. 

Acting Assistant Commissioner Paul Dunstan said officers were committed to identifying offenders, protecting victims and disrupting violent behaviour before it escalated.

"Our focus is on removing violent offenders from homes and enforcing protection orders," Mr Dunstan said on Monday. 

"This operation reinforces our ongoing commitment to tackling domestic and family violence year-round."

Minister for Police and Counter-terrorism Yasmin Catley said the operation sent a clear message to the cowards committing domestic violence offences.

"Domestic and family violence is a stain on our society. These offenders rely on fear and control, and Amarok is about turning that pressure back onto them," Ms Catley said.

"If you use violence, intimidation or coercive control, police will come for you."
