President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu has announced the establishment of a reform and rehabilitation centre for at-risk children affected by crime, following a recommendation from his Cabinet. The decision was made after thorough discussions during today's Cabinet meeting, where a comprehensive proposal was presented by the Ministry of Homeland Security and Technology.
The proposed centre is envisioned as a "long-term residential care facility" located on an uninhabited island, in accordance with the Juvenile Justice Act. It aims to provide specialized treatment and unwavering support to children at risk of juvenile delinquency and those already affected by it.
The Ministry's proposal details the facilities and programs to be implemented, emphasizing a comprehensive approach to rehabilitation. The centre will offer a structured environment designed to address the unique needs of at-risk youth, focusing on rehabilitation and reintegration into society.
This initiative underscores the government's commitment to addressing juvenile delinquency and supporting vulnerable children through targeted interventions and specialized care.
