Abstract

This research paper aims to highlight the importance of the family bond in Algerian criminal legislation. It examines how the legislator takes this bond into account when establishing rules for the criminalisation and punishment of family-related offences. The paper discusses the different approaches taken by the legislature, including mitigating penalties in some cases, exempting individuals from punishment in others, and imposing stricter penalties in certain situations. It also examines the role of the prosecutor in family cases. The paper concludes by highlighting the importance of raising awareness of the importance of the family bond among the general population, through the efforts of state institutions and civil society organisations.
