National leaders have approved a policy to grant clemency and reduce prison sentences for 2,500 inmates, following proposals from relevant authorities. The decision was made after central judicial agencies reviewed and cross-checked the files of each inmate eligible under current legal regulations.
Specifically, the 2,500 inmates listed are those who have served part of their prison term, demonstrated good rehabilitation, strictly adhered to prison regulations, and fully met the standards set forth in the Amnesty Law and its implementing guidelines.
According to relevant authorities, this is one of the annual activities reflecting the Party and State's lenient and humane policy toward offenders, encouraging them to strive for rehabilitation, return to their families, and rebuild their lives. Following the leadership's approval, relevant agencies will complete the necessary procedures, ensuring transparency and compliance with regulations.
The announcement and delivery of clemency decisions to inmates are expected to take place at prisons nationwide in the coming period, enabling beneficiaries of the leniency policy to reintegrate into the community at the earliest opportunity.
