Belarus is getting ready to introduce amendments within the nation’s legal code to chemically castrate convicted pedophiles.
Anzhelika Kurchak, spokesperson for the Prosecutor General’s Office, stated on Telegram that amendments to the nation’s legal code have been ready, which stipulate that, together with punishment for a criminal offense, a courtroom verdict supplies for “compulsory treatment of persons suffering from pedophilia.”
The Health Ministry, Kurchak stated, has “developed and approved a clinical protocol containing an algorithm for the treatment of pedophilia, including the use of chemical castration.”
She stated that the initiative from the Prosecutor General’s Office has been supported by President Alexander Lukashenko.
