Sweden said on Thursday that it planned to introduce electronic bracelets to monitor children at risk of being recruited by criminal gangs, the government's latest measure aimed at cracking down on deadly gang violence.
Authorities would be able to assign the bracelets to children and youths aged 13 and up, the government said, estimating that around 50 to 100 youths would be monitored to ensure they were respecting curfews decided by social services.
