If the proposal for a new terror law is voted through, it will be punishable to help terror groups in different ways. Anyone sentenced can be jailed for up to two years, or six years if the crime is considered serious.

"For example, if you handle weapons, rent land, or carry out transports to a terrorist organization, co-morons are for example," Justice and Migration Minister Morgan Johansson (S) told SVT News.

It can also be a criminal offense to recruit for co-operation, to finance it and to travel abroad to help a terrorist organization. Morgan Johansson says the government wanted to go further, but believes that the new law will still be able to make a big difference.

- We access many activities we did not do before. In addition, the police have the opportunity to use secret coercive means. It will be easier for the police to roll up a terror cell.

From the beginning, the government also wanted to make it illegal to join a terrorist organization. That part was removed because the Law Council considers that it violates the freedom of association, which is protected by the Constitution.

Morgan Johansson says that he is open to change the constitution, but then it must be decided twice in parliament and in between elections are held in parliament.

SD wants to be able to expel those who are convicted

The Swedish Democrats state for SVT News that they will vote for the bill, which they have long called for, but think the government should have gone further in terms of sanctions.

"We also want these people to be able to lose their Swedish citizenship and be expelled," says the party's spokesperson Adam Marttinen.

SD also criticizes the red-green government for not initiating the process of amending the Constitution during the last term, so that even participation in terrorist organizations could now be criminalized.

- The government has been waiting a very long time. This type of legislation exists in other European countries that have been more forward-looking and actionable when it comes to terrorism, ”says Adam Marttinen.

The new law is proposed to start on March 1 next year.
