The stealing of sewers in Morocco is waiting for the adaptation of “killing without the intention of events”

Researchers in legal and judicial affairs said that “stealing the covers of sewers that have spread for many years, which lead to many pests, does not always reach media circulation, has become required to tighten the penalties for everyone who is involved in retrieving the cover from the dug,” considering that “whoever does this criminal act is already aware that there is a catastrophe that is expected to occur regardless of its nature and degree Its risk. ”

Days after the death of a child in a volcano, national platforms circulated a shot of a shot, trying to remove a sink cover in a corridor for the two men, which means the threat of life and health of all passers -by in this region; Therefore, researchers in the law stated that “it is time for Chapter 403 of the Criminal Code to move when this act causes the death of one of the citizens,” warning that there are cases in which the thief follows up “sabotaging public property.”

This chapter of the Moroccan Penal Code states that “if the wound, beating, or other means of abuse or violence have been committed intentionally, but without the intention of killing, and yet death, then the punishment will be imprisonment from ten to twenty years,” adding that “in the event of premeditated, monitoring or using weapons, the punishment is life imprisonment.”

“Essential strictness”

Al -Mukhtar Umar, Professor of Criminal Law at the Faculty of Legal, Economic and Social Sciences in Sala, said in this regard: “If the crime is expected, he must follow it, sometimes the result of the theft is to endanger people, and thus killing them without the intention of causing this.” Locally. ”

And he mentioned an age, as part of his statement to Hespress, that “the matter has taken a dangerous picture after it was repeated years ago as a result of negligence in punishment,” highlighting that “the act of theft undermines the means that the authorities have developed to protect the men and the citizens, when it is uprooted, the foundations of protection are hit. The investigator and not by the action of theft in itself.

The university and the researcher pointed out that “this necessarily includes killing without the intention of causing it, because the accused recovers the sink and knows that the results of his action are unexpected,” stressing that “when a citizen spends a similar reason, the crime must be adapted and the accused follows up the life of a person at risk that led to his death, and thus we consider him a partner in the murder without the intention Moral.

“Possible air conditioning”

Regarding the possibility of adapting the case as killing without the intention of causing it, Abdel Aziz Khalil, a law researcher, said that “the two criminal acts are independent”, at the same time, at the same time that “the fall of people in the drains whose coverage was questioned by public actors and planned companies due to the failure; Because it was necessarily aware of the exposure of the sink cover for looting by unknown persons; So here is the responsibility. ”

In his statement to the newspaper Hespress, Khalil reported that “the criminal act was committed by the thief, and the affected can also move the invitation against officials and the planned company.” He added: “They did not interact with the situation to provide the necessary protection for citizens or alert them to the defect in their parts,” adding that “the judiciary can go towards strictness in issuing rulings Similar issues, given that these actions are repeated. ”

The researcher in the law also pointed out “the necessity of estimating the damage caused by the open sewage sewers when one of the citizens falls,” considering that “the solution is currently the speedy intervention whenever the sink is monitored with no cover, while the judiciary undertakes the failure or criminal acts that are criminal dye when the thief is carried out by sabotaging public property and knows that this results Because of the law and societal ethics.
