Obviously, I am not in a position to establish a direct cause-and-effect relationship between these two things.
As we mentioned, what particularly concerns us is that the needs of victims must be truly taken into account when determining appropriate sentences. They must be given the space they need to express themselves in this regard. Among their needs is safety, not only physical safety, but also psychological safety. In our view, these are important considerations that should be given greater weight.
As my colleague mentioned earlier, the idea is not to take away the rights of perpetrators of violence, but to restore the balance so that the rights of victims are given greater consideration.
