A 16-year-old female learner who is accused of assaulting a fellow high school learner in the Zululand District, was sentenced to three months in prison after she failed to appear in court.

KwaZulu-Natal MEC for Education Kwazi Mshengu welcomed the sentencing of the teen who is accused of assaulting a fellow learner from Mathole High School in Mahlabathini.

The accused learner was charged with assault with intention to cause grievous bodily harm. She was released on warning and under the care of the mother since she was only 16 years old.Her parents did not know her whereabouts. The matter was then postponed to the 9 March 2021 for an enquiry to be conducted to establish the reasons for her non-attendance.

The Grade 11 learner, who has started serving the three months jail term, is expected to appear before the court once again on 31 March 2021 where the matter of assault with intention to cause grievous bodily harm will once again be heard.

Well why wasn't she let off like a certain ex president is being? Surely if he doesn't get prosecuted in spite of the Constitutional Court and others saying he should be then nobody else should be held accountable for same crimes? Not attending court.

I owe you an apology to ever doubt your sincerity and professionalism. It’s was just like a dream to me when I received my first payment. After my second payment it became a reality now after several payments it has become a way of life. lisacampbe

Good news to the victims. Well done

Under 18s now serve prison terms, since when?

Action - consequence

Why did she go to jail and the keyholder of Nkandla is still drinking tea and social distancing? Disgrace!!

How long did it take to decide the sentence after she failed to appear before court... do that to Zuma also

Three months is harsh. Very harsh.

These are the same animals that become civil servants
