Anyway, though the original statment is correct, it sounds incomplete to me. At least in Argentina, we rarely use the verb "someter" alone, but in compound forms like in no estoy sometiendo a nadie a violencia, el genocida será sometido a juicio, etc.
Hope it helps.

You're right Moni. I misread it. Thank you very much for your corrections!
