Drug trafficking is one of the most prosecuted illegal activities under Italian law, with significant legal consequences. It is essential to understand what the prescribed prison sentences are, and the implications for aiding and abetting.
According to Italian legislation, trafficking in narcotic substances is punishable by prison sentences that vary based on the severity of the crime and the type of drug involved. Penalties can be particularly severe for trafficking in hard drugs.
The law provides for minimum penalties that can be reduced in the presence of mitigating circumstances. These can include cooperation with authorities or minor offenses.
Aiding and abetting drug trafficking also carries severe penalties. Anyone who facilitates the trafficking or distribution of narcotic substances can be punished with penalties similar to those prescribed for direct trafficking.
"The involvement of minors in trafficking or aiding and abetting further aggravates the penalties provided by law."
For minors, the judicial system tends to focus on rehabilitation rather than punishment, but the measures can still be severe, depending on the gravity of the offense.
