According to the proposed Article 189-5, for not preventing continuous pressure and aggressive behavior of children, including children towards each other, in educational, medical, social service, sports, cultural, recreational institutions, and penitentiary institutions, individuals will be fined from three hundred to four hundred manats, and officials will be fined from five hundred to six hundred manats.
