A teenager was involved in rape and murder of Delhi based para medical student. But being a stray case, it was said that law on crimes by teenagers needs no change. But such incidents are increasing. apart from legal sympathy, there is also no corporal punishment in schools. Latest incident is of molestation of teacher by a student.

Now is the time to review law on juvenile crimes. It is felt that the juvenile age be reduced to fifteen years.

Administrative procedures, rules are to be updated on a regular basis keeping pace with the ever changing social conditions. Teenagers of today are not as innocent as their counter parts of 2 decades ago. As you rightly pointed out, law needs an immediate updating.

There are many cases where teenagers have committed serious offenses and each time their age has come to their rescue, so there should be some other provision to bring such offenders into the net of law so that they dont get away and become confident and go on to other criminal activities,,
I can not think the accused as a teenager. He should be punished and punished. If necessary change the law.
He ,who can do such crime, can not be a child.

:) When school student smoking and drinking wine than how they are innocent. here in my city two student hurt their class fellow with some sharp thing. weather a teenager deserve benefit of juvenile act or not it will be decided on the basis of nature of crime.
As you said we need lot of changes in laws towards rapes and punishments. Parents also must have control over their children.
