Story of the little boy - Friday, November 14, 2003 at 19:59
A seven year old boy was at the centre of a courtroom drama last week when he challenged a court rulling over who should have custody of the boy. The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge awarded custody to his aunt.
The boy confirmed that his aunt beat him nore than his parents and refused to live there.
When the judge suggested that he should live with his grandparents the boy cried out that they beat him more than anyone.
The judge dramatically allowed the boy to choose who should have custody. Eventually, custody was granted to the Sprigbok team this morning as the boy firmly believes that the Springboks are not capable of beating anyone.
