Summary: Our research indicates that in the Jammu and Kashmir regions administered by India, people may be sentenced to death for crimes committed while under the age of 18, and corporal punishment may be imposed under traditional justice systems.
This report was submitted ahead of the 13th Session of the Universal Periodic Review as part of our campaign against inhuman sentencing of children - defined to include sentences of death, life imprisonment and corporal punishment.
