A German boy of age 12, from Aalen, a town in the southern German state of Baden-Württemberg, allegedly stole money from his parents to pay “protection money” to school bullies who threatened to attack him. According to The Daily Telegraph, the boy handed over €17,100 equivalent to £14,700 after he was told that his older brother would physically assault him if he failed to deliver the cash. It apparently began in March in the town where the boy lives. “Because the older brother is known not to be a softie, the boy was really frightened and always delivered the money,” said a police spokesman. According to German police the bullies acted individually asking for “protection money” or threatening violence if the boy would not pay. The victim’s parents used to keep large amounts of cash around the house and did not notice the money being taken, German authorities have claimed. Police said that only a small amount of the money had been recovered. Most of the cash was reportedly spent on clothes and computer games. The bullies, who are all aged 11 or 12, cannot be prosecuted because they are too young. German Boy Paid €17,100 Protection Money To School Bullies is a post from: Daily World Buzz Continue reading →
