Wijziging van het Wetboek van Strafvordering in verband met de uitbreiding van de gronden voor voorlopige hechtenis

Stage submittedUpdated 5mo ago

This legislative proposal aims to amend the Code of Criminal Procedure by expanding the legal grounds under which a person can be held in pre-trial detention. This measure is intended to provide the judiciary with more flexibility and tools to ensure the effectiveness of criminal investigations and trials. This change primarily affects individuals suspected of crimes who may be held in custody before their trial. It alters the legal criteria that judges and prosecutors use to determine whether a suspect should remain detained.
