THE JUVENILE SICARIATE IN PERU AND RESTORATIVE JUSTICE

The norm that regulated the infraction of the adolescent on the criminal law was established in the Fourth Book, Title II, Chapter III of the Code of Children and Adolescents, which proposed as an end their rehabilitation and social reincorporation, whose modification through Legislative Decree No. 1204 provided three sanctions to replace socio-educational measures: socio-educational sanctions, the limitations of rights established by certain prohibitions and deprivation of liberty, the increase in the sentence of deprivation of liberty, which was observed by the Committee on the Rights of the Child, which recommended its repeal to the Peruvian State.This was adopted by the State in search of solving the great increase in crime, especially juvenile hired killers, which due to their benign punishments were used by organized crime, therefore, to protect human rights, the State developed a system of juvenile justice within the framework of international standards, by enacting the Code of Criminal Responsibility for Adolescents that required a sufficient implementation that the State could not fulfill due to its scarce budget; for this reason, it was not possible to resolve the problem of juvenile delinquency, especially in relation to hired assassins, which originates debates on a possible hardening of sentences and their sanction as adults.In this sense, this work investigates the factors that prevent a correct application of restorative justice in the solution of juvenile hired killers.
