Its OK to commit crime with a hoodie !!

The PASOK party in Greece has intonated that it will repeal the law that imposes stiff sentences on individuals who commit crimes whilst wearing hoodies or covering their faces. Now am I missing something here? Are they saying if you commit a crime and showing your face, when you get caught (and no doubt you will with this age of CCTV) you will get the same sentence as those who commit the crime and remain anonynmous (but then they might not get caught!). Well I suppose it keeps the prisons empty.....
