The Thai Senate approved yesterday (Monday) a bill to deal with repeat sex offenders, legalising the use of anti-libidinal drugs to suppress or reduce sex drive. The bill passed by 137-3 votes with four abstentions, according to Deputy Senate Speaker Supachai Somcharoen.

 

After the approval by the Senate, the bill will now go to the cabinet for consideration.

 

Under the bill, medication can be prescribed only with the approval of a psychiatric specialist and an internal medicine specialist, and with the consent of the sex offender in question. This measure can also be applied to offenders after they have served their sentences, or those who are in rehabilitation, to prevent repetition of the offence.

Do we know what happens, legally, to them if they refuse the "treatment"?

If no consent, then unless a court application can be made to mandate it, it appears it's useless.

About bloody time. 

 

I believe permanent surgical procedures would be much more effective.

Unless I get framed for some crazy stuff, I want the guillotine for the member.

 

 

Very expensive injection that has to be repeated every 3 months. More likely to do a runner before their 90 day report init.

Sexual offences, such as rape, are rooted in power and aggression not on libido.  Drugs or surgical castration does not prevent an offender from exercising their power in non-sexual ways or sexually violating with fingers or objects.  Indeed, preventing someone from getting an erection might make them even more keen to exercise their power over vulnerable victims.

They'll be subjected to being "offended on" -- in their 70-people prison cell.

Let the nonce make Clint Eastwood's day.

Obviously, there are no shrinks, psychologists or sociologists in this think-tank. Rape is not a sex crime. It's a crime of violence. You can geld a sex offender but that won't take the violence out of him. Some big-boned ladyboys are excellent examples
