A series of amendments have been made to the Penal Code contained in Decree 144-83 in order to eliminate all forms of discrimination against women, via legislative decrees 191-96, 59-97 and 127-99, and family violence has been made a crime (articles 179-A and 179-B), as has sexual harassment (article 147-A). As a result of these amendments, rape is now a publicly actionable crime, even if the victim is an adult. Article 122 has been repealed and article 142 amended. In 2004 amendments were presented to the Penal Code (Decree 144-83), affecting Book II Title II “Crimes against sexual freedom and integrity”. The definition of the crime of rape has been improved to include illegal trafficking in persons and commercial sexual exploitation.
