Student A is a ``juvenile infringing'' person who is between the ages of 10 and 14 and is not subject to criminal punishment, so the police closed the case after sending him to the family court.

Experts from the department have opined that anyone who injures or kills someone by throwing something from a high rise should be punished regardless of intentionality.
