Why having nothing to do could be a crime

Article Abstract:

Young people resort to crime activities when they do not have anything to do. The leisure professionals can involve them in leisure activities during school holidays and vacations, which will reduce the crime rate. Leisure providers have to work at the local level providing varied and challenging programmes, supplementing special government funds with more targeted provision.
