The National Assembly passed the bill changing the penal code to introduce prosecution of suspects who have threatened the country’s senior officials or their relatives ex officio, without the injured party initiating proceedings.

The bill, adopted by the government in early September, comes after such a solution was proposed in February as the justice and home affairs committees discussed mounting hostility in society.
