Rejected petition All murderers to reveal where bodies are buried

Rejected on

I want them to debate this and I want them to call it by name of myself or or a person who has lost a loved one and cannot find the body because the murderer will not reveal where it is

Because it is about time these murderers are forced to reveal where the bodies have loved ones are instead of just having a hold over the poor people who have lost their loved ones too to the murderers


Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. The Government and Parliament aren't able to force individuals to take specific actions, but can change the law so that people can be punished if they don't do something.

The Prisoners (Disclosure of Information About Victims) Act 2020 now requires that Parole Boards consider the issue you raise when taking decisions. You can find out more here:

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
