COURT RULING: Wellington NZ. August 08, 2006
A seven year old boy was at the center of a courtroom drama yesterday
when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of him.
The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the judge
initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with the child
custody law and regulations requiring that family unity be
maintained to the maximun degree possible.
The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his
aunt beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live
with her.
When the judge suggested that he live with his grandparents, the boy
cried out that they also beat him. After considering the remainder of
the immediate family and learning that domestic violence was
apparently a way of life among them.
The Judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to propose
who should have custody of him.
After two recesses to check legal references and confer with child
welfare officials, the judge granted temporary custody to the
Springboks, who the boy firmly believes are not capable of beating
anybody.
