It's a little murky. The headline originated from this court ruling: Calls for change were amplified last year when Finland’s supreme court ruled that a man who sexually abused a 10-year-old girl could not be charged with rape as there was no evidence the crime had involved violence or that the child was overcome by fear. Quoting: The Guardian [ link to www.theguardian.com (secure)] Your fact-check site is saying that Finland's laws were updated after this to correct the court ruling: The 2018 case did, however, prompt the updating of Finnish laws to define sexual abuse as rape without requiring prosecutors to prove violence Quoting: Child HubSo the headline is definitely misleading.
