The​ instigator of the ⁢aggression in the mall in Sofia was⁣ the minor boy, who is 13 years old.He ‍moved on the escalator in the mall and started to commit the hooligan ⁢acts. This was stated to NOVA by the Deputy District Prosecutor of Sofia‍ Atanas Dotsinski, commenting on the case of the ⁤three minors and ⁣a minor boy who attacked an employee of a shopping center in Sofia.

“The remand order for the ‍three detainees for the violence in a Sofia mall will be heard on Tuesday in the Sofia ⁣city Court.The ⁤court will decide whether ⁣to keep them in custody permanently or release them. The whole group consisted of four people and it was their ‌first ⁢offense in terms of criminal activity,” Dotsinski said.

“The group is friends, classmates who live in the same neighborhood. They got‌ together and decided to carry out these acts in the mall. The instigator was the minor boy who is 13 years old. He moved on the escalator in the mall and​ started to commit the hooligan acts,” ​emphasized ​Dotsinski.

Dotsinski also explained what sentence awaits the teenagers. “Since the moment of committing the⁣ criminal⁤ act is important, wich in this⁤ case is while the boys were minors – the law provides for a reduction. For an adult, it is indeed up to 5 years of imprisonment. But the reduction for minors reduces the amount of punishment – imprisonment to⁢ 2 years”.

atanas Dotsinski: Certainly. A group ​of four minors ​was involved‌ in violent acts at a shopping center in Sofia.⁣ The instigator of this ‌aggression was a⁢ 13-year-old boy who provoked the situation‌ while moving on the escalator. His⁢ actions prompted the rest of the group,⁢ who are friends and classmates from the same neighborhood, to join in and carry‍ out these hooligan acts.

Editor: Given this incident, what implications do you see for the community and parents in addressing behavioral issues⁢ among youths?

Atanas Dotsinski: This incident underscores the crucial role parents and‌ the ⁢community play in youth development. Open communication between parents and children is essential, alongside active community‌ engagement. It’s also⁣ important for schools to implement programs‍ that teach conflict resolution and the impact of ​violence. furthermore, community watch systems⁣ or youth organizations can help keep children engaged in positive activities.

Editor: Before we conclude, what advice would you offer to⁢ parents in dealing with⁢ potential ‍signs of delinquency?

Atanas ‌Dotsinski: ⁢Parents should be observant and attentive to changes in behavior. ⁤if a child shows signs of aggression or association⁢ with potentially harmful peers, it’s imperative to have open conversations about their feelings and experiences. Seeking help from professionals, such as counselors or‍ psychologists, can also provide valuable guidance in addressing these issues effectively.
