This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament
Petition To increase the length of imprisonment for Voyeurism to a minimum of 2 years.
Victims who are put through this vile offence are life changing, physically and mentally. Their ability to trust is taken away & yet the offender will only receive a maximum of 2 years imprisonment - with a 3rd off if they plead guilty. This is not in anyway justice for victims.
More details
Voyeurism is an offence under the Sexual Offences Act 2003.
This offence consists of somebody watching/filming victims doing a private act without their consent. This can then be distributed over fake porn sites, social media and across the internet for others sexual needs. 2 years is not justice!
A private act can be from bathing, using a toilet, anything you would deem as private and personal, and people do not deserve to have their privacy taken and publicly distributed without knowing.
