Relatives of gang criminals cannot count on compensation when their parents or children are killed in gang conflicts. The government is currently reviewing the entire compensation system for relatives.

National Organization for Relatives of Violent Victims is pushing for a change, and believes that there is a risk of another violation for those who are denied compensation. Before the summer, the organization will present proposals for new regulations before the summer of this year.
