    YEREVAN.- The number of crimes in Armenia reduced by about 25 percent
    over the recent 10 years, Director of Sociometer center Aharon
    Adibekyan said.

    The number of juvenile crimes also reduced by 50 percent, he told
    reporters on Saturday.

    `About 170 juvenile crimes, out of 4,000 crimes in general, were
    recorded last year. As compared with other CIS countries, the index of
    youth crimes is low enough,' Adibekyan said.

    In Armenia, fortunately, there is a low level of alcohol and drug
    addicts among minors. Adibekyan noted that much depends on a family.
    The adults must follow how their children are spending money and teach
    them to be responsible for their steps.
