Wijziging van het Wetboek van Strafrecht in verband met de aanpassing van de regeling van de vervolgingsverjaring

Stage submittedUpdated 5mo ago

This motion proposes to amend the Dutch Criminal Code specifically regarding the rules on prosecution statutes of limitations. It aims to change the timeframe within which prosecutors can bring charges against a suspect before the legal window for prosecution expires. This change primarily affects the judiciary and legal practitioners, potentially allowing for the prosecution of certain crimes that would have otherwise timed out under current laws.
