Streamline laws on children - Ndadi

BONELA Director Uyapo Ndadi voiced the concerns during the commemoration of The Day of the African Child (June 16) in Ramotswa yesterday. Ndadi pointed out that the law says children aged seven years and below are not criminally liable.

"What it means is that you can send a seven year-old kid to kill a person and the kid will not face prosecution," he said. "The presumption is that all children above seven years are old enough to be criminally liable."
