Heili Sepp, departmental head at the Justice Ministry,has previously said the bill would offer the possibility to adjourn the release of habitual offenders after they have served their sentence if there are grounds to believe that the person will continue committing offenses.
The measure will be used only when a real danger exists that the person will commit new serious offenses after serving the sentence for a previous offense.
It could be applied to pedophiles, serial rapists,robbers and extortionists, for instance, Sepp said.
