Drama as thief is made to lift heavy weight as punishment for stealing
A young thief gets the opportunity to choose between going to prison or lifting a heavy weight clearly beyond his power after being caught in the act of stealing.
A video making the rounds on social media captured the moment a thief was given a get-out-of-jail card in exchange for his display of strength.
The young man, looking famished got cheered up by a crowd of Sierra Leone people who insisted that he lift the locally made weight or be handed to the police.
The man struggled multiple times, clearly unable to achieve his goal until he did eventually after almost falling to his knees.
