Paragraph text
An essential safeguard against torture and other forms of ill-treatment is the availability of multidisciplinary and qualified staff working in children's institutions. Inside the law enforcement, institution and migration systems, children are more vulnerable to human rights violations than adults because of the manner in which judicial and other officials deal with children.
