K.M.S.

K.M.S. is a 16-year-old Gabonese adolescent who was sentenced to 18 months in prison, with three months suspended, for armed robbery in Port-Gentil. He was found guilty of threatening a passerby with a knife to steal a mobile phone, which he claimed was driven by extreme hunger. His case highlights the challenges faced by youth in precarious situations and has led to measures for his social reintegration and psychological support in preparation for his release, expected in November.
