Talk:Women in Uruguay

False asseveration
The writer of this: "...especially so-called crimes of passion, which continue to be tolerated under Article 36 of the Penal Code (The passion provoked by adultery) – Artículo 36. (La pasión provocada por el adulterio)."

have not properly understand what the legal provision actually says, and the source Infobae doesn't help due to improper or inaccurate use of legal terms. According to the mentioned article 36, the judge is allowed to exonerate or remove the punishment if the crime was commited on the occasion of the so-called crimes of passion and under certain conditions (such as the offender must have had a clean criminal record and having committed this crime in flagrante delicto of the infidelity), but the offender is still guilt and is not exonerated from his/her culpability or liability, and the delict is registered under his/her criminal record.

The debate and political efforts are due to the violence against women issue and because most of the victims are women. --Zerabat (talk) 15:43, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
