Regeringen vill underlätta utvisning av dömda våldtäktsmän

It has been noted in certain cases that individuals convicted of serious sexual assaults are not being deported How do you see this and what changes would you like to see Yes that's correct and it's truly shocking Oh we're about to move forward shortly with entirely new Swedish legislation As I see it this will mean we end up with the strictest rules in the entire Nordic region regarding criminal deportations This means that any offense carrying a penalty stricter than a fine must result in deportation Moreover there are now international conventions that limit our options Yes it's both the European Convention on Human Rights and in certain cases the UN Refugee Convention Well we've already stated from the government's side that we want to begin working on it try to gather support ot only within the EU but also beyond to transform these conventions They wouldn’t have looked anything like this if they’d been written today And of course it’s problematic that one can’t deport them A rapist who has destroyed the life of his victim simply because the person has a status declaration How much international support do you have for changing these conventions Well we'll have to wait and see I'll say that when it comes to the refugee convention it really means we're putting on a Swedish leadership jersey here I don't know of any country that's actually pursuing this but I believe I know that there are other countries that have faced similar issues We'll start by reaching out to our Nordic neighbors then expand to the EU circle and work our way forward from there Because we cannot afford to look at outdated conventions that were written over 70 years ago prevents us from deporting dangerous individuals who have committed serious sexual offenses
