Currently, 46 children are held in the Central Prisons, which is double the number from seven months ago. There is discussion about creating a special juvenile detention facility in Mennogeia, aimed at the care and education of the children. However, there are concerns regarding the management and oversight of this facility. The Commissioner for the Protection of Children's Rights suggests that the space should be designed to be welcoming for the children.
