Algerian Assembly approves Penal Code draft
The Algerian People's National Assembly unanimously approved an amended and supplementary law to the Penal Code that includes the reactivation of the death penalty for perpetrators of deliberate arson crimes and child kidnapping. The law stipulates the death penalty for those who intentionally set fires in forests, as well as for offenses related to treason, spying, organized crime, and attempts to threaten public security and order. Additionally, the law sentences child kidnappers to death, particularly when the crime involves torture or sexual assault, with no possibility of reducing the sentence in such cases. The purpose of the law is to enhance legal protection for individuals, especially children, and to increase deterrence in arson cases, along with stricter penalties.
