About this statute

This article says the law creates offences and penalties, with higher penalties when the victim is a child under 14 or between 14 and 16, and the maximum penalty when the child was taken from an orphanage. An offence is a prohibited act or a failure to do what is required, where the conduct breaches public order and is punishable by law. No one may be punished for conduct that was not an offence when it was committed, and no one may receive a heavier or unpublished penalty for that offence. Courts must not decide cases by analogy; criminal laws are to be interpreted strictly. If several laws punish the same offence, the specific law applies instead of the general law, unless the law says otherwise.
