    YEs arrest them and prosecute them, let them work on farm lands, and in farming areas. This is what a high youth unemployment rate looks like. What a shame.

    Petty theft develops into armed robbery. The public must support the police to deal with the canker. As we crack on them, let's create job opportunities for them as well.
