Three men in their 20s were acquired, but two of them were sentenced to civilian lawsuit to pay compensation. Norway is the only country in the Nordic countries that does not have a consent law, but the government will present a new such law before Easter. The defenders of the free men do not believe that a consent law would have made any difference in the case. The Law Society supports the introduction of a consent law, and thinks it will have an educational effect. The Law Society Meiner Norway is on overtime to introduce a consent law, and points out that all the other Nordic countries have introduced such a law. The summary is created by a Ki-service from Openai. The content is quality assured by news&#8217;s \u200b\u200bjournalists before publishing. &#8211; I think it is high time that I get a consent law in place that states that sex without consent is rape, says Bertine V\u00e5genes. She was the offender in the so -called group rape case in Bergen, which was widely mentioned. Three men in their 20s were acquitted in the Court of Appeal in the Court of Appeal because the evidence did not succeed in conviction. Two of them were nevertheless convicted to pay compensation of 240,000 left to the woman. -For my part, my body went into a complete freezing reaction, where I couldn&#8217;t move or say anything, says Bertine V\u00e5genes. The Vice President of the Law Society, Benedicte Gram-Knudsen, thinks a consent law will move the responsibility more clearly to the most active party. -Then it is the one who initiates a sexual act that must clarify the situation by raising or being aware of the signal, says Gram-Knutsen. The Government notifies law before Easter Norway is the only country in the Nordic countries that does not have a consent law, but now the government will present a new such law before Easter. Bertine V\u00e5genes has called for Norway to receive a consent law. Photo: Therese g.pisani V\u00e5genes thinks such a law could help her when her case was in the legal system. &#8211; Certainly I had had a consent law at that time, so I think my case would have had another outcome, says V\u00e5genes. It does not agree with the counterparty. The defenders of the two of the acquittal men say in a common statement that a consent law would not make any difference in this case. &#8211; Sexual intercourse without consent is criminal officer today under section 297 of the Penal Code, and the court found that this provision was not the crime, writes John Christian Elden and Maria Hessen Jacobsen in Elden law firm to news. The defense of the third does not want to comment on the play. &#8211; Too technically both V\u00e5genes and many of the more thousands who lined up in demonstrations have called for just a dividend law. &#8211; I think it will contribute to a sense of security, and I think it will also help more Torer to report the cases, says V\u00e5genes. A consent law thinks V\u00e5genes would help other than themselves. &#8211; With a consent law based on the fact that just yes is yes, and that sex without consent is rape, I think it will help in some other cases as well, says V\u00e5genes. Lawyer Mette Yvonne Larsen.

That&#8217;s not how people act, that&#8217;s not how situations are. And that&#8217;s not the way the issues I&#8217;ve had, and there are quite a few, works. Think of the behaving effect of the Law Society and Deira close to 24,000 members have national assembly decisions that they want the introduction of an equity law. Vice President Gram-Knutsen admits that rape cases will be difficult to evaluate even after the introduction of a possible consent law, but thinks it will nevertheless be important and potentially decisive. Vice President Gram-Knutsen in the Law Federation. Photo: Anna Rut T\u00f8rressen \/ news &#8211; there will be any claim against claims. But we cannot shape a legislation based on whether it is difficult to prove anything. In addition to placing responsibility on the active, a consent law will also be normative and have an educational effect, says Gram-Knutsen. -Look at the Me Too debate and what it did with the way you behaved, and that without it led to any legislative change. Meiner Norway is on overtime lawyer Kristin F. Hammervik is a tenant of the Assistant Attorney&#8217;s Committee (BAU) in the Law Society. Ho Meiner Norway &#8220;is proper in overtime&#8221;, and points out that both Sweden, Denmark, Iceland and Finland have introduced consent law. Lawyer Kristin Fagerheim Hammervik. Photo: Andr\u00e9 Bendixen \/ news &#8211; Landa has chosen different wording. Common to these is that the wording is based on the fact that the define element in what an rape is is that the victim has not actively expressed voluntary or consent to the sexual intercourse-ie a &#8220;just yes is yes&#8221; determination, Hammervik says. &#8211; There is no reason why Norway should offer its citizens a weaker legal protection and protection than our neighboring countries. Ho thinks that one must stop problematizing what in practice lies in a &#8220;just yes is yes&#8221; determination. &#8211; Everyone knows that in practice one consents through sounds, action, words, looks, movements and more. That&#8217;s the way the vast majority have sex, she says. The bill must be submitted by the end of April in order for this to be dealt with by the Storting before the summer. Bertine V\u00e5genes thinks that consenting law is a step in the right direction: &#8211; But, I am still a bit weaned, until I get to know the wording of the consent law. Take contact heath!
