Justice Temo urges mother to talk to her 16-year-old son before it is too late

High Court Judge, Justice Salesi Temo has today urged a mother to talk to her 16-year-old son before it is too late.

The 16-year-old boy from Ra is charged with 1 count each of aggravated robbery in 2 separate cases and the alleged incidents happened this year.

Justice Temo was informed this morning that the boy attended school only until class 8.

Justice Temo further told the mother that if the boy does not want to study, he can go into farming.

The Judge told the mother what the boy is allegedly stealing is peanuts compared to what he can earn from the land.

He further says that if the boy continues on this path, the law will squash him out and he will end up in prison.

He has been released on bail and his case has been transferred to the Juvenile Court.
