Lakialoite laiksi rikoslain 17 luvun muuttamisesta

Stage otherUpdated 3d ago

This legislative initiative proposes changes to the Finnish Criminal Code to strengthen the legal framework against animal abuse. Specifically, it focuses on updating the laws regarding sexual offenses involving animals to ensure better protection of animal welfare and more appropriate legal sanctions. The changes primarily affect the legal definitions of animal-related crimes. This would impact offenders and the judicial system by introducing stricter or more specific penalties for those who engage in sexual acts with animals.
