Delhi Court Considers Revising Juvenility Age Due to Child Crime
The Delhi High Court is looking into whether children are being used by criminals.
A judge said it's a big problem because criminals are using kids for all sorts of bad things, not just selling alcohol, but also drugs and even violence.
The court was talking about a case where a man was accused of using a child for illegal liquor.
The court didn't let the man go free because they need to ask him questions to find out if he's part of a larger group using children for crime.
They want to make sure kids are safe and criminals are caught.
Delhi High Court addressed the issue of criminals using children.
The court observed the need to reconsider the age of juvenility.
The court was hearing an anticipatory bail plea regarding a man accused of using a child in illicit liquor trafficking.
The judge said child abuse in crimes is more serious than the illicit liquor trafficking.
The court denied anticipatory bail, citing the need for custodial interrogation to investigate a possible network.
