KARACHI, May 29, 2009 (Balochistan Times) -- Deputy Speaker Sindh Assembly, Shehla Raza has urged for concerted efforts to initiate educational and vocational training facilities at the Youthful Offenders Industrial School (Juvenile Jail), Karachi. Public Correctional Policy on Youthful Offenders Transferred to Adult Criminal Jurisdiction Introduction: Juveniles have developmental needs that require highly specialized management and treatment by corrections professionals; therefore, a separate system of corrections for juveniles was developed in states across the country many years ago. The bill further revises current law, which only permits one category of young adult offenders to be housed with youthful offenders while another category is precluded--now both categories of young adult offenders could be housed with youthful offenders. |
