The purpose of educational measures and of juvenile imprisonment is to ensure the education, rehabilitation
and proper development of juveniles who have perpetrated criminal offences by extending protection,
assistance and supervision to them, providing them with vocational training and developing their personal
responsibility. In addition, the purpose of juvenile imprisonment is to exercise special influence on a juvenile
perpetrator in order not to perpetrate criminal offences in the future, as well as to deter other juveniles from
perpetrating criminal offences.
