With the participation of the prosecutor, a civil case was heard in the Lepel District Court concerning the placement of a 13-year-old child in a special educational and upbringing institution for minors requiring special upbringing conditions.
It was established that the boy had been committing unlawful acts aimed at the theft of citizens' personal property for three years. However, he was not brought to administrative or criminal liability, as he had not reached the age of criminal responsibility.
The boy lived and was raised in a complete, large family with his father and stepmother. His upbringing was unsystematic, parental authority was low, and the parents' psychological and pedagogical knowledge was limited. The minor had completely gone beyond his parents' control.
In the court hearing, the man stated that his minor son did not respond to his disciplinary measures and left home without permission, and therefore he agreed to his placement in a special educational and upbringing institution.
The school's form teacher confirmed that the boy had low academic motivation.
The Juvenile Affairs Inspectorate and the educational institution where the boy studied had carried out preventive work with him, but this yielded no positive results.
The main reasons contributing to his deviant behaviour were an unwillingness to lead a law-abiding life and a tendency to leave home without permission and to wander.
Taking into account the prosecutor's opinion, the Lepel District Court decided to place the minor in a special educational and upbringing institution for a period of 2 years.
