THE CRIME OF CHILD KIDNAPPING IN ALGERIAN SOCIETY AND ITS REPERCUSSIONS -A PSYCHOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE –

Abstract

There is no doubt that the right to freedom is a legitimate right for any human being, and it is recognized and guaranteed by various laws and legislation. All constitutions stipulate this right and work to consecrate and protect it. Therefore, any attempt to attack this right represents a blatant transgression and violation of the general rules of society, which leads to destabilization and security of society.

   This means that any restriction of the freedom of individuals is considered criminal behavior, due to the negative effects it has on individuals and society. Thus, the crime of kidnapping becomes one of the most serious crimes, if not the most dangerous, as it threatens the social structure of any society, in addition to the other crimes that may result from it. ...

    Algeria, like other societies, has not been spared from the spread of this dangerous phenomenon, especially against children, and this is evident from what the media, especially newspapers and television shows, have become aware of in the form of almost daily media reviews. Which calls for the necessity of examining this criminal phenomenon with some study and investigation in order to try to investigate the causes and drivers of its spread, and to study its effects on the victim himself and on society in general.
