PETALING JAYA: A review of the country’s child justice system is necessary to help juvenile offenders reintegrate into society, says Unicef Malaysia child protection specialist Selvi Supramaniam.
The United Nations’ Committee on the Rights of the Child, citing Article 40 of the CRC, said diversion should be an integral part of a country’s child justice system. “Diverting minor, low-risk child offenders before trial reduces court backlogs and allows the resources of prosecutors, courts and probation officers to be better targeted at higher-risk children who need it the most,” said Selvi.
“In the United Kingdom, children who commit minor offences are usually handled outside of the court system by the police and local government through a variety of orders and agreements. The effectiveness of alternative measures and diversion was seen in the lower number of first-time entrants into the youth justice system in England, where it was reduced from 75,270 in 2009 to 11,374 in 2019, Daljit said.
