A 16-year-old girl accused of assaulting another girl has been sentenced to three months in jail for failing to appear in court, the KwaZulu-Natal education department said on Sunday.

The teenage girl was charged with assault with the intention to cause grievous bodily harm after “severely assaulting a fellow girl learner” from Mathole High School in the Zululand district. Footage of the incident was circulated on social media and the family of the victim opened a case against her at the police station in Mahlabathini.

The accused was released into the care of her mother and was supposed to appear in court again on February 23 but she did not show up. At the next appearance, on March 9, she could not offer an explanation for her no-show in February. “She failed to provide reasons and the magistrate found her guilty for failing to appear in court and she was sentenced to three months' imprisonment for failure to appear before court.

If she comes from a rich family she was gonna be sent for mental evaluation but ke touph luck for her

Where are her parents. They should be jailed to.

Well done black to black violence is, wrong and some fools want to placcise judiciary nonsense. The one who, was bullied was black just to clear it before some continue with their nonsense of bringing race into this

It will help to stop that, because this was practice of long time, I remember in 1996 from school was Friday, piki ne foshol was a war not a fight, children need discipline to be good future parents

The disturbing video of the incident shows that she really did act like a monster, and serving time in jail is in order for her - even for no-show.

A teenager monster, good lesson...

Good riddance to bad rubbish. What she did was despicable

Tsietsi_Mohale Young children should be left alone, this anti black judiciary must be done away with, destruction of such a young life is unacceptable, this case should definitely have been handled differently.

Good shot.

3 months too lenient. 3 years would have been better to deter other bullies in schools. Anyway, she has a criminal record because of lack manners.

She has learned from the best! The king of nkandla.

This is noneses.

Good, she deserves it

I hope Zuma takes note

First experience happens to be a total failure but I never give up because I knew it was going to work out for me trying continuously, fortunately but now I am smiling by getting involved with you Michael_homas9 as my account manager

That's bad and totally unacceptable for the young girl going around bullying other children.

Why did she fail to go to court? Where are parents?
