With 35 votes in favor, the Chamber of the Senate passed into law the project that defines the conspiracy of hit men as a crime.

It should be noted that This law would be the first to be promulgated of the 31 projects that were agreed between the Government and Congress in matters of public security.

From its social networks, the Upper House pointed out that it “approved the report of the Mixed Commission of the project that modifies the Penal Code to punish the crime of hit men. The project is dispatched to the Executive. This project was rejected in its third legislative process, so it passed to the Mixed Commission.

The initiative seeks to punish with 3 years and one day to 5 years those individuals who reach an agreement regarding the murder of another person in exchange for money or consideration.

Within the law, a modification is made to the Criminal Code, replacing “any means that implies profit” with one that alludes to “economic or other benefits for one’s own benefit or that of a third party.”

In addition, if the conduct is carried out once morest a judge, a prosecutor, a public criminal defender, or personnel from the Carabineros, the PDI or the Gendarmerie, the sanction will vary from minor imprisonment in its maximum degree (three years and one day to five years) to imprisonment to a minimum degree (five years and one day to 10 years).
