The penal code for minors in Kosovo determines the maximum punishment for a minor from 5 to 10 years in prison. Article 35 entitled "Duration of imprisonment for minors", explains the maximum level of punishment for this age group.

" Imprisonment for minors cannot be imposed for a duration of less than six (6) months nor more than five (5) years and is imposed in full months and years.

Exceptionally, the maximum imprisonment for a minor is ten (10) years for serious criminal offenses punishable by life imprisonment, or when the minor has committed at least two (2) joint criminal offenses, each of which is punishable by imprisonment for more than ten (10) years ."

If the case is classified as "Aggravated murder", the two minors are tried for this offense which is punishable up to life imprisonment, since the perpetrators are minors then they would be sentenced to a maximum of 10 years in prison.
