The PSOE waits for the Supreme Court to rule with different sentences on the application of the 'only yes is yes' law

REINOSA, Jan. 5 (EUROPA PRESS) -

The PSOE is waiting for the Supreme Court (TS) to establish jurisprudence with its sentences in order to apply what is known as the 'law of only yes is yes' without lowering the sentences for those convicted of sexual crimes.

The socialist spokesperson and Minister of Education, Pilar Alegría, has indicated that the Attorney General's Office has already "quickly issued jurisprudence" marking a "very clear" guideline in which it prevented downward revision of the sentences, for which she believes that now "it is up to to the TS pronounce".

In this sense, he recalled that the Supreme Court has already issued a first resolution in this regard in which it states that it must be reviewed on a case-by-case basis, so now "it is appropriate and opportune to continue waiting" for different rulings to transfer jurisprudence in return to the norm.

This is how Alegría has responded to questions from the press about whether this law will be modified to prevent further lowering of sentences, to which the socialist has remarked that it is a "pioneering" rule in Europe and that it has "a very clear objective: to protect, protect and protect women and victims".

Alegría made these statements to the media in Reinosa (Cantabria), on his way through the party headquarters in the municipality.
