Havana, July 1 (RHC)-- Cuba's National Assembly of People's Power (Parliament) today published on its website the draft law on the Military Penal Code to promote citizen participation and contribute to raising the legal culture.

The Governing Council of the People's Supreme Court delivered the bill to the President of the National Assembly, Esteban Lazo, on May 11, in accordance with the provisions of Article 164 of the Constitution of the Republic.

For the elaboration of the law, a temporary working group was formed since November 2021, made up of representatives of the People's Supreme Court, the General Prosecutor's Office of the Republic, the Chief Military Prosecutor's Office, the Ministries of the Revolutionary Armed Forces, the Interior and Justice, among other institutions.

The Parliament states that the draft law was prepared taking into account a broad national and international biography, the treaties signed by the Cuban State related to the proposal, as well as documents derived from the development of international law.
