A correctional supervision sentence would be too lenient for a man convicted of assaulting his son, the Johannesburg Regional Court heard on Monday.

 

 
 
 

 

 

 

Correctional services officer Themba Mjonondwane said considering the nature of Bradley Connor’s crime, such a sentence would be too lenient.

“I find it difficult to put my head on the block and say he qualifies (for a community-based sentence),” he told the court.
