A POLÍTICA PUNITIVA DE COMBATE AO CRIME DE FINANCIAMENTO DO TERRORISMO NA LEGISLAÇÃO JORDANIANA: UM ESTUDO ANALÍTICO

Resumo

Like other contemporary criminal legislations, the Jordanian legislation has adopted a dual punitive policy to combat the crime of terrorism financing. This policy is based on two key aspects: deterrence, by imposing severe and strict penalties on perpetrators of this crime, and leniency, by encouraging offenders to cooperate with justice authorities in uncovering such offenses. While deterrence is a common approach to crime prevention in general, it is particularly essential in addressing the crime of terrorism financing. Therefore, the Jordanian criminal legislator has implemented a punitive policy that leans toward severity in punishing anyone who commits or participates in this crime. At the same time, it has adopted a lenient policy toward offenders who cooperate with justice authorities in exposing these crimes, thereby mitigating their serious consequences and serving the public interest of society.
