The petitioner received the benefit of Juvenile Justice Act after verification of claim of juvenility. Verification of juvenility can be raised at any stage as per the Juvenile Justice Act.

Legal Provision

Section 16 read with Section 15(1)(g) of the Juvenile Justice Act provides that the maximum period for which the petitioner (a juvenile at the time of commission of offence) could be detained is three years.

Prejean: The Death of Innocents: An Eyewitness Account of Wrongful Executions

[loveomhh]

Reflection And still, we rise! Let me preface this by saying ”YOU forcibly took us from our land and that wasn't enough. You beat us, raped us, separated our families and that wasn't enough. You tried to demonize our culture and erase our heritage and that wasn't enough. You devastated our communities with drugs and poverty. You tell me if any of this is ok. _______ Current Situation The police department is hired to serve and protect? We ask, serve whom and protect whom? We are not on the receiving end of serve or protect. We are arrested at a higher rate, we receive longer jail terms, and we are never allowed to make a mistake. What we are served is stop and frisk, chokeholds, beating, unwarranted detainment, and violation of civil rights. ______ Wrong is Wrong And here's the thing that makes you sick- the police know what to do because they do their jobs well usually without incident when a crime, disturbance, murder, riot or any other criminal act is done by a white person. How much of this are we to continue to take. ______ Now- VOTE, Tuesday, November 3, 2020 No more racist behavior. Stand up. Speak your truth. Tell your story. Demand resolve. We are human. We matter. Being black in this world should not mean a death sentence. Vote- hold our local politicians all the way up to the White House accountable for their decisions. Vote them in or out of office. Your vote matters and counts as an action for change. Change takes time and the time is NOW. ______ #amplifymelanatedvoices #blacktuesday #enough #stop #policebrutality #murderconviction #justiceforgeorgefloyd #equality #civilrights #economicjustice @whenweallvote @nycvotes @_omhhinc (at Bed-Stuy BKLYN) https://www.instagram.com/p/CA84vqpjPNS/?igshid=1hvy7wqk313wa

WE TRIED OUR BEST TO BE GOOD CITIZENS IN SPITE OF THE CONSISTENT SLAPS IN THE FACE WITH RACISM, POLICE BRUTALITY, DISGUSTING IMMIGRATION PRACTICES, UNFAIR WAGES, HEALTH CARE DISPARITIES, BELOW STANDARD EDUCATION AND COUNTLESS OTHER HARMFUL RACIST ACTIONS. NOW, this state of anger, frustration, tired of being tired, and repeated episodes of the same racist destruction against black and brown people has resulted in THIS- giving back (warranted behavior) what you received. Hate begets hate, violence begets violence, destruction begets destruction so before you SAY STOP. understand what you are witnessing from the rioters peaceful and unpeaceful is mirrored behavior. When the law of nature comes around )and it will), it catches people off guard every time. It is always met with surprise and feelings of why is this happening to me? When in fact, the aggressor is the receiver of the same aggressive/destructive behavior he/she demonstrated. So NOW, you got what you gave and we are where we are- now what. Here’s a novel idea- BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE HAPPEN. If not, we will continue to stand up for ourselves. We will continue to value ourselves and not allow others to devalue our existence. So until you understand that Black people are human beings that deserve to experience our God-given rights as human beings living well in our streets, neighborhoods, States, countries, world, and the universe, the fight will continue and the revolution will be televised. #enough #stop #policebrutality #whatdowewant #murderconviction #4policeofficers #georgefloyd #countlessothers #blacklivesmatter #justiceforgeorgefloyd #equality #civilrights #economicjustice @whenweallvote @nycvotes @_omhhredroom https://www.instagram.com/p/CA72RRdByYe/?igshid=1vlk17sccqocd
