Romanian Justice Ministry announced the creation of a working group to examine changes to the criminal responsibility age following the killing of 15‑year‑old Mario in the town of Cenei. The group, established by Minister Radu Marinescu on 26 January, will assess whether the current law- which bars criminal liability for minors under 14-should be amended, possibly lowering the age or introducing a capacity‑based criterion. The decision comes amid public debate over the Cenei case and aims to respond swiftly with professional, evidence‑based solutions.
