In Kyiv, a petition for the application of educational measures to three teenagers aged 13 and 14 who beat a 14-year-old boy in the Obolon district of the capital and posted a video of the beating on social media has been sent to court.
This was reported by the Kyiv City Prosecutor’s Office, "Komersant Ukrainian" reports.
It has been established that the teenager was beaten by three of his friends on the playground in turn. The day before, a conflict arose between the boys.
Juvenile prosecutors and investigators, taking into account child-friendly justice and respect for children’s rights, with the participation of a psychologist, interrogated all the participants in the fight and the 14-year-old victim.
Given that the teenagers were under the age of criminal liability for the crime of intentionally striking, beating or committing other violent acts that caused physical pain and did not cause bodily harm (Part 1 of Article 126 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine), the prosecutor’s office filed three motions with the Obolon District Court of Kyiv to apply compulsory educational measures to them.
Administrative measures were taken against the teenagers’ parents.
