Abstract
The article considers various aspects of reference to minority as grounds for procedural objections in the administration of the international judicial bodies of juvenile justice on charges of international crimes. It is noted that, despite the lack of a unified approach to the issue of the admissibility of the prosecution of juveniles for such crimes the international criminal tribunals (existing permanent and ad hoc) and hybrid judicial bodies, seems to be indisputable the validity of the qualification of minority of the accused as mitigating circumstances. Moreover, it is necessary to set the minimum age of criminal responsibility for international crimes through the adoption of a treaty.
