Alinea 182 Parket bij de Hoge Raad 26 juni 2018

Een alinea uit Parket bij de Hoge Raad 26 juni 2018, ECLI:NL:PHR:2018:1394.

In view of the last part of this passage, the scope for amnesty in the Netherlands can best be compared to a ground for inadmissibility of the prosecution, but it should be noted that convicted persons can also benefit from an amnesty scheme. Although amnesty extinguishes the criminal nature of the act, this does not - or in any event need not - mean that in retrospect the conduct in question is justified or should be considered excusable. Amnesty is an opinion of the legislature about whether it is expedient to attach criminal law consequences to acts that are intrinsically prohibited. An amnesty does not detract from the extent to which an offence warrants punishment; instead it eliminates the possibility of imposing punishment.
