Evening deterrence key to reducing crime
The article concerns a proposed penal code bill referred by the Algerian government, aimed at strengthening deterrence against major crimes that threaten national security and the safety of citizens. The Legal Committee emphasized the application of the death penalty for perpetrators of intentional arson and the kidnapping of children, in line with the need to confront these dangerous acts. The amendment also included stricter penalties for forest and tree fires, as well as crimes targeting national interests, especially in cases of treason, espionage, or attacks on security and order, with the goal of protecting resources, the environment, and societal safety. Additionally, the project focused on enhancing legal protections for children by increasing penalties for crimes such as kidnapping, torture, and sexual assault, to ensure the safeguarding of children's rights and maintain deterrence. These measures are part of the state's efforts to confront the rising wave of serious crimes and achieve the necessary deterrence.
