On June 1, the Penitentiary. Lipcani 2 of the only juvenile in the country, celebrated "Last Sound" and International Children's Day. As teachers come from other schools here in town, it was decided that the last day of school to be identified yesterday. In celebration of child detainees participated Justice Minister Tanase, and representatives of the penitentiary, parents and teachers.

"Good day, dear colleagues, dear guests and, in particular, convicted, sent to prison interim director, Iurii Furmuzachi, the about 50 children lined the square. "Fear not," the minister said children saw them being late with the answers. "Besides the fact that there are at freedom, you have many other rights. It's only your fault that you are in a correction institution, is the fault of society. Prison term will end and I want you, after you get out of here, God keep you, not to get on these roads, "Minister wished Tanase, which brought them a gift set Books.
In addition to secondary school children who serve their sentence here still have the chance to do a technical job. Garabadgi Basil, director of the prison vocational school, he handed diplomas to the most deserving students. Among them - a teenager of 17 years, Gennady Braşoveanu Orhei just waiting to reach freedom. Now a year and a half, when completed nine grades, he stole money and a gun in a building Orhei, with whom he went out to take revenge. He was sentenced to five years imprisonment. "Because I was good and worked, you let me go home. I hope that, within a month to go, "he says optimistically. His mother is gone for 11 years in Greece, and the father does not speak. I find that parents divorced when he was a year and a half. His mother remarried in Greece and has another son. Gennady was left in the care of his grandmother, who is helping with what may. He says he would not like to come here a second time. He learned the machinist trade and hopes to find some work or, at worst, to go to his mother in Greece.
Lipcani Prison has 250 inmates capacity. Today, it seems empty with just 50 children are here. For the most part, children in prison were pardoned in 2009 and remained in custody only those who have committed serious offenses or who have two-three "experiences" of this kind.
Lipcani, and the church was involved in educating children, prisoners, yet the steps are shy. Since 2002, Adrian Nemerenco priest comes at least once a week from prison Bălăsineşti minors. He says they have very different emotional and behavioral changes, so the guard asked. Keep jobs here in a makeshift church. "Sometimes, items stolen from the church, then bring them back," Father told us.
"If you had other conditions and other concerns, certainly not enough here," said Minister out of prison Tanase, which appeared pleased that the Lipcani juvenile institution does not resemble a prison camp but with a kind of regime tighter.
