Another 48 charges were taken into consideration during sentencing.
He is also required to stay indoors from 9pm to 6am, complete 70 hours worth of community service and attend “cognitive behavioral treatment”.
He is also banned from using mobile phones with recording abilities until a psychologist deems him suitable, and he is subject to random checks on his electronic devices.
He cannot be named due to his age.
Caught red handed
the boy was caught red-handed on 19 October 2019, when he was seen pointing his phone towards a boy by the boy’s father, who was making his way to the changin area of the men’s toilet.
The teenager then got scared and hid inside a toilet cubicle.
