Oaktsam våldtäkt

Negligent rape (oaktsam våldtäkt) is a crime in which the perpetrator was grossly negligent as to whether the participation was voluntary. It means that responsibility can arise even when the person did not know for certain, but should have understood, that the other person's participation was not voluntary. The crime is tried in court, which assesses the circumstances in the individual case.
