INDIA-JUSTICE-JUVENILE-FILES
To go with India-justice-juvenile,FOCUS by Pamposh RAINA
(FILES) In this photograph taken on November 8, 2005, Indian prisoners sit in a cell of Tihar Jail in New Delhi, one of the largest prison complexes in South Asia. When Santosh Kumar and his friends spotted the blood-soaked body of a neighbour on their way home from a game of cricket in New Delhi, they felt duty-bound to report his murder. But without access to a lawyer and having failed to provide police with an alibi or proof of age, the 17-year-old found himself behind bars along with some of India's most hardened adult criminals in Delhi's Tihar Jail. While anyone under the age of 18 should in theory never be detained in a prison such as Tihar, the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) identified 2,900 inmates just in New Delhi's two prisons who they believe are juveniles.
