The Law of child Act of 2009 has tried to regulate different matters about the children. These matters include the matter relating to children offenders. The Law of Child Act in relation to children offenders has accommodated various matters on how procedures in dealing with children offenders. The law requires that children offenders should be tried in the special established court to deal with children’s matters, that is, Juvenile Court, also the law requires that children offenders should be locked in a separate cell with the adult criminals and other conditions in dealing with children offenders. The aim of treating children offenders in a different way than that of dealing with adult criminal is to ensure that the right of the children is protected even after a child being found in conflict with the law
Therefore, the paper discusses the extent to which the Law of Child Act of 2009 has been helpful in slowing down delinquent behaviour among children, to identify the extent on how the Law of Child Act is effective in modifying Child offender’s behaviour and to examine challenges which face the implementation of the Law of Child Act.
To acquire the data, the researcher employed field data collection methods as well as library research. The findings from the study indicate that the LCA, to the great extent has tried to deal with matters relating to children offenders. However, the study suggests that the problem is not on what the law says but the problem is on the implementation of the law. The paper further reveal on the importance of education to children, community and the society at large on the right of the child.
Ultimately the researcher winds up by giving recommendations that will enable the effective implementation of the Law of Child Act of 2009 and help to rehabilitate the children offenders in the society. |
