Denmark unveils legal reform to allow the worst foreign criminals to be deported
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"Denmark unveiled a legal reform on Friday allowing foreigners who have been sentenced to at least one year of unconditional imprisonment for serious crimes to be deported. Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said the measure would affect any foreign national convicted of serious offences, such as aggravated assault and rape, though she acknowledged the idea part of a series of legal changes could conflict with European human rights conventions."
The Independent seeks donations to fund on-the-ground journalism covering reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech. Donations support investigations and documentaries such as 'The A Word', enable reporters to speak to both sides, and allow free access to reporting without paywalls funded by supporters. Denmark unveiled a legal reform to deport foreigners sentenced to at least one year for serious crimes, naming aggravated assault and rape as examples. The package also tightens controls on undocumented foreigners, introduces anklet monitors for criminal foreigners, reopens an embassy in Syria, strengthens cooperation with Afghan authorities, and may conflict with European human rights conventions.
