The purpose of<br />narcotics abuse is a deviant or accidental use of narcotics. So the act violates the law and<br />is threatened with criminality. Criminal policy in an effort to control children as<br />perpetrators of narcotics crimes. Threats of imprisonment that can be imposed on<br />children no later than 1/2 (one half) from the maximum threat of imprisonment for<br />adults. This means that the criminal threat for children who become narcotics couriers is<br />half of the criminal threats contained in the Narcotics Law. For children who become<br />couriers or narcotics brokers, they must be based on the mechanism stipulated in the<br />Child Protection Act and the Juvenile Justice System Law. Law enforcement for<br />perpetrators who are still under age, there is a special provision called diversion, namely<br />the transfer of settlement of child cases from criminal justice processes to processes<br />outside of criminal justice
