- (General Dispatch) – Sanctions applied to a group of terrorists do not represent a sanctioning regime for anti-socials, all of this occurs under the watchful eye of the UK Judicial System.
- According to figures provided by the Home Office, at least 9 out of a total of 49 terrorists were sentenced to imprisonment for a period of less than 12 months. While 13 other criminals received a custodial sentence of less than four years.
- Based on the above, only 3 criminals received life sentences, which mean that 45% of the criminals received lesser penalties and were released.
- However, actions such as these are being perpetrated in Great Britain, where the crimes committed by these terrorist groups do not seem to pose a future risk.
- Considering the problems raised, in February 2020 the government passed a bill called the Early Release Restriction Bill, whose function is to advance the release of terrorists.
- Simultaneously, in 2020 the decrease in terrorist acts obtained a significant decrease, experts believe that it was due to the spread of the pandemic around the world.
- According to statements of the national coordinator of the fight against terrorism, he said: “while we and our families are protecting ourselves from the virus, terrorists are deliberately planning their next attacks”.
- The more citizens comply with the measures imposed by the government, the greater the risk that British citizens will have to suffer from terrorism.
