Italian Parliament Begins Drafting Law To Treat Violent Sex Offenders With Chemical Castration
Sex offenders are under rising pressure all over the world, and criminals convicted of rape and pedophilia may be facing increasingly tougher penalties as many countries move towards chemical castration sentences for these crimes.
Italy, for one, has started working on a proposed new law legalizing chemical castration for rapists and pedophiles.
Daily Mail reported:
“The parliament in Rome gave its approval on Wednesday to the creation of a committee that could draft laws on treating violent sex offenders with androgen-blocking drugs.
The treatment would be consensual and reversible with the aim of preventing reoffending, Politico has reported.”
This proposed legislation is the latest move by Italy’s Right-wing government led by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni that is cracking down on law and order.
