The bill was approved in the House of Commons in Thailand in March and was approved by the House of House on Monday, of which 145 of the House members voted for support and abstained by two votes. The bill also needs to be voted again in the House of Commons and approved by the Thai royal family in order to formally become a law.

According to the report, according to the bill, some sexual criminals who are considered risk of crimes again can choose to accept drug injection that reduce the level of testosterone levels in the body to exchange for shorter imprisonment time, provided that the approval of two doctors is approved by two doctors. Essence At the same time, the criminals accepting the injection were also asked to wear an electronic monitoring bracelet to accept 10 years of monitoring.

Reuters said that if the bill is eventually passed, Thailand will join the ranks of a few countries using chemical castration, including Poland, South Korea, Russia and Estonia. Some states in the United States also allow chemical castration.

Somsak Thepsuthin, the Thai Minister of Justice, said on Tuesday, "I hope this law can pass as soon as possible, and I don't want to see news about women who encounter unfortunately."
