The article aims to identify important issues regarding the increasingly frequent practice of submitting motions by police officers to family courts in other to initiate proceedings in cases of demoralization of minors in connection to their participation in allegedly illegal assemblies during the epidemic. The author wishes to show that both from the perspective of national and international standards, as well as the welfare of minors understood in the context of Article 3 of the Act on Proceedings in juvenile cases, one should remain of the opinion that the sole participation of a minor in a peaceful spontaneous gathering in the time of a pandemic can and should be protected by the state as the constitutional right to assembly.
