Sweden reduces age of criminal responsibility
The article focused on Sweden's decision to lower the age of criminal responsibility from 15 to 14 years old, as part of a temporary five-year measure to tighten regulations related to juvenile crimes. During this period, the maximum penalties for minors will be increased from 14 to 18 years in prison. This move came after the Swedish Parliament approved the bill, despite previously withdrawing a proposal to reduce the age to 13. The aim is to improve the justice system and reduce youth crimes.
