More Less | | Euro (eur), Pounds sterling (gbp), U. S. dollars (usd) | Sample translations submitted: 1| English to Somali: Drug laws | Source text - English The majority of recent drug law changes in Peru focused on a reduction of penalties. However, some revisions actually increased the length or severity of sentences. If passed, the country’s new drug laws would enforce a sentence of 25-35 years in prison for any prosecuted person identified as a leader of a drug organization, or someone who uses drug trafficking to finance terrorism. Increased penalties would also be implemented to combat small scale trafficking or production. A standard sentence of 1-4 years would be increased to 6-10 years for any sales or production of less than 25 grams of cocaine, 5 grams of opium, or 100 grams of marijuana. | Translation - Somali Sharciyadaha mukhaadaraadka badankooda ee dhawaan lagu beddelay dalka Peru ayaa waxay ahmiyad saareen dhimista ciqaabta. Hasa-yeeshee, qaar ka mid ah muraajacyadaas waxay run ahaantii badiyeen dhererka ama adkaanta xukunkooda. Haddii la ansaxiyo, sharciyadaha cusub ee mukhaadaraadka dalka waxay dabbakhid fulin doonaan xukun oo 25-35 sano oo xabsi ah qof alla qofkii lagu ciqaab mariyo laguna caddeeyo inuu madax u yahay urur mukhadaraadka ka shaqaysta ama qof u isticmaala ganacsatada mukhadaraadka si ugu maalgeliyo argagixi-sinimo. Waxaa xitaa la fulin doona kordhinta ciqaabta si loola dagaalamo soo saarka ama ka ganacsatada yar. Xukunka caadiga ah ee 1-4 sanadood waxaa loo kordhin doonaa 6-10 sanadood haddii la iibiyo ama la soo saaro in ka yar 25 garaam oo kookayn, 5 garaam oo opium, ama 100 garaam oo xashiish ah. |
