Abstract: | The underlying principle behind establishing Juvenile Justice System was the belief that young persons are more vulnerable than adults and more amenable to rehabilitation.
newlineNumber of offences committed by juveniles has constantly been increasing in the last decade but the horrible Nirbhaya Gang Rape Case which involved a juvenile accused, who was just short of six months to attain the age of 18 years. As a result of the protests, the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2015 was passed which provided for the trial of the children/juveniles between the ages of 16 and 18 years who are involved in heinous crimes as adults as well as maximum punishment for the same. Putting juveniles in jail and giving them exposure to such a lifestyle at such a tender age will make them a criminal whereas, providing counselling within the reformatory system would help them and increase the possibility that they do not become repeat offenders.
newlineTo solve the problem of juvenile crime, the measures adopted must be fair and should take into account the age and developmental psychology of children/juveniles. Before amending existing law, an in-depth study of the jurisprudence and the philosophies involved must be carried out and the impact of the current law must be seen. Amending the existing Act, in response to the nationwide outrage against a juvenile, would be dangerous and would deprive such adolescents who are entitled to the rehabilitative services which focused on reformation and rehabilitation of the juveniles.
