The Justice Minister Morgan Johansson wants to create a lex Lindgren around the issue of parole.
Johansson wants to judgments about social danger should play a larger role when deciding whether a detainee should be released on parole after two thirds of the sentence or not.
Today, it is determined in the first place of how you behaved in prison .
– As the regulatory framework looks now, I think it has been too lax and too much routine of how to have two thirds only given these individuals conditional release. It must be set higher requirements in these decisions, says Morgan Johansson, Minister of Justice (S).
How much disconnect this the public opinion that has been around “Haga man”? Can we call it a “Lex Lindgren” proposals?
– You can do so, because it is in these cases that you see how the regulations work in practice.
There has been a lively debate about the so-called Haga man, who was released today, after serving two thirds of his sentence.
As it stands today released Most prisoners after two thirds of the sentence unless there are special reasons to the contrary.
The extraordinary reasons is primarily about how the prisoners behaved in prison and possible parole.
If there are exceptional reasons , the decision on conditional release postponed by six months at a time. Morgan Johansson has his way, it will also be assessments of recidivism and general social danger count as special reasons.
– There will be more people who get to sit a long time. They will be those judged to be dangerous and that there is a high risk of relapse. Then it hits not just cases “Haga man”, but it can, for example, also involve the holding of organized crime, where there is a very high risk of reoffending.
Morgan Johansson puts Now an investigation, and hope to have a bill in place already in 2016. He sees no greater risk of too much power ports in individual assessors hands.
– There are already Today such a regime of the cases we are talking about. I think we can design a system that is right for sure.
When do you want to see this implemented?
– If we are to put an inquiry now we can look forward to a legislative proposal next year.
