瑞典从2026年7月起将严重犯罪的刑事责任年龄降低到13岁。 Sweden to lower criminal responsibility age to 13 for severe crimes, effective July 2026.

瑞典计划从2026年7月3日起,将谋杀、企图谋杀、严重强奸和爆炸等严重罪行的刑事责任年龄从15岁降低到13岁,作为五年临时措施的一部分。 Sweden plans to lower the age of criminal responsibility from 15 to 13 for severe crimes like murder, attempted murder, aggravated rape, and bombings, effective July 3, 2026, as part of a temporary five-year measure. 这一变化旨在解决青年越来越多地参与与帮派有关的暴力犯罪的问题,允许在极端情况下对13岁的青少年判处长达两年的监禁。 The change, aimed at addressing rising youth involvement in violent gang-related crimes, allows for up to two years in youth prison for 13-year-olds in extreme cases. 该政策排除了轻罪,是经过2025年政府调查后制定的。 政府调查最初建议14项,但在咨询126个组织后被提升至13项,其中多数组织反对该政策。 The policy, which excludes minor offenses, follows a 2025 government inquiry that initially recommended 14 but was advanced to 13 after consulting 126 organizations, most of which opposed it. 司法部长古纳尔·斯特罗默称此举为紧急应对，指出2025年涉及52名15岁以下谋杀案嫌疑人。 Justice Minister Gunnar Strömmer called the move an emergency response, citing 52 under-15 suspects in murder cases in 2025. 该法案将在议会可能批准之前由瑞典立法理事会审查,目标是在夏季执行。 The bill will be reviewed by Sweden’s Council on Legislation before potential parliamentary approval, with the goal of implementation by summer.
