During the alleged incident, the victims were 14 and 15 years of age.

The State Prosecutor told the court that the accused and the two boys attended the same church at the time of the alleged offense.

The Prosecutor objected to bail and told the court that before the accused was charged, he and his mother had sought forgiveness from the two complainant’s families.

The case has been adjourned to next Wednesday for bail ruling.
