Children in Conflict with Law
On the MISSING podcast this week, we’re taking a look at the subject of sexual delinquency and children in conflict with law. Sharing their insights on this episode are Puneeta Roy, Founder Trustee of The Yuva Ekta Foundation, who has been working with young people in conflict with law for over a decade, and cyber psychologist and psychotherapist Nirali Bhatia, who is well known for analysing online behaviour, counselling cybercrime victims and creating awareness on cyber bullying. They tell us more about what goes on in the minds of these young offenders, what is triggering this kind of violent sexual behaviour in adolescents, whether juvenile detention centres and remand homes offer effective rehabilitation solutions, and discuss an important question – are we too quick to cast judgement and blame these children for offences that clearly have its roots embedded deep in our society?
