If the case is considered minor and can be mediated, the police will try to resolve it through mediation. However, cases involving repeat offenders are not suitable for mediation. Mediation also depends on the willingness of the victim, as the final decision remains with the victim, while the police can only try to encourage it. In this case, the police use their discretion to facilitate penal mediation, acting as a mediator between the two parties. When the victim and the offender agree to mediation, the role of the police as mediator is to connect them and help formulate goals so that an agreement can be reached.
