Justice for children
Overview/Issue
Humanitarian situations often increase the possibility of children coming into contact with the justice system as alleged offenders, victims or witnesses, or in a combination of these roles.
The many armed checkpoints are presenting a danger in this regard.
Number of children affected
9 boys were detained by Ansar Allah as they reportedly conducted “law enforcement operations”. 6 other incidents of detention by Ansar Allah were also verified involving 6 boys, 4 of whom were detained for their alleged association with Islah (the Muslim Brotherhood-linked party), and 1 because of his father’s association with Islah.91
