Sex offenders face mandatory chemical castration
Bangkok Post
|May 24, 2025
Britain is exploring whether to mandate chemical castration for some sex offenders in a bid to reduce reoffending and ease pressure on overcrowded prisons, the justice secretary said Thursday.
-
The proposal would build on a pilot scheme launched in 2022 in prisons in southwest England, where libido-suppressing medication is offered on a voluntary basis.
An independent review led by former justice secretary David Gauke forecast a shortfall of nearly 9,800 prison places by early 2028. Among its recommendations is wider use of chemical suppressants to lower reoffending rates.
