Proposition de loi modifiant la loi du 20 juillet 1990 relative à la détention préventive en vue de créer un droit d'être entendu pour les victimes.

This Belgian bill would amend the 1990 law on pre-trial detention (detention préventive) to create a right for victims to be heard before decisions on holding a suspect in custody before trial. The proposal falls under the judicial system and is presented in the Belgian Chamber of Representatives. Based on the title only, it aims to give victims a formal voice in these decisions. Victims of crime who are involved in cases where a suspect may be detained before trial would be directly affected, as would judges and investigating magistrates who handle detention decisions. The exact procedures, conditions and timing remain to be confirmed in the full text.
