South African public correctly identify that two men drugged and assaulted 8 boys, justice disagrees

Media mislabels the older man a pedophile, and the most fucked up thing here is the teenage male (16) who drugged & abducted the boys was never arrested, since he is a "child".

A case in Soweto has prompted widespread outrage after a 16-year-old schoolboy allegedly drugged eight fellow pupils and led them to a man accused of raping them.
While police confirmed the arrest of a 31-year-old suspect in connection with the assaults, parents and community members have criticised the decision not to detain the teenager. The controversy has raised questions about how South African authorities handle cases where children are implicated in serious crimes.
