German Justice Minister Stefanie Hubig (SPD) has rejected lowering the minimum age for criminal prosecution. This comes in the context of an alleged killing by a 12-year-old in Dormagen. Instead, she advocates for youth welfare and family courts.
India's Supreme Court has ruled that police must provide written grounds for every arrest, bolstering constitutional rights. Arrests without such communication will be deemed illegal. The directive applies to all offenses under the new criminal laws.
