Home Ministry has drafted a Juvenile Justice Bill to prevent juvenile crimes, to address the way the judicial system handles minors who have committed crimes.
Deputy Director General at the Ministry Mohamed Waheed said the bill would handle the arrest of children, and procedures for such cases outside the judiciary.
The bill is currently in English, and is to be translated into Dhivehi before being sent to parliament.
