No Statute of Limitations for Espionage and Citizenship Offenses.

This new law removes the time limit for prosecuting crimes related to espionage and unlawfully obtaining citizenship if it facilitated espionage. This means individuals suspected of such acts can be prosecuted at any time, regardless of when the crime was committed. The aim is to enhance national security by making it easier to prosecute serious threats.
Key points
Eliminates the statute of limitations for espionage offenses, meaning perpetrators can be prosecuted regardless of how much time has passed.
No time limit also applies to unlawfully obtaining citizenship if it was linked to espionage activities.
The changes aim to strengthen the government's ability to prosecute individuals who threaten national security.
