Invited tonight on "Top Story" with Grida Duma, journalist Anila Hoxha raised the alarm about the frequent violent incidents among minors, which in the worst cases have ended in death.

The journalist said that alarm bells about incidents involving minors have rung several times.

She said that today at the Kavaja Juvenile Institute, where there are 120 juveniles in rehabilitation, 20 of them are for murder and 18 of them for injury.

Meanwhile, she noted that today's fashion for violent minors is baseball bats, which if used are considered by the law to be just a beating.

"We have done interviews, campaigns and awareness raising many times and we have sounded the alarm bells. If everyone did this task that the media does, we would be in a different situation. Then we go to awareness raising. Everyone together is thought to create that wall to protect the child, but this wall only seems to exist because in fact it is not.

At the Kavaja Institute we have 120 children, 20 of whom are for murder and 18 for injury. That institute works to eradicate these prototypes.

When I did the Exclusive "Our Children", I received extraordinary phone calls from parents whose children had been injured, one of whom had been paralyzed because he had been stabbed.

When Can's murder happened. A friend took her son out of school because her child was being bullied. And that's a problem because bullies don't get punished.

The incidents with gloves happened. The institutions also designated it as a cold weapon because up until that point, you could be injured by being hit with a glove and it was called a beating.

"Today's fashion is baseball bats because it is called beating, so in short, the law somehow protects them," said Anila Hoxha.
