LAW ASSIGNMENT Read and carefully analyse the scenario below and answer the questions that follow: After participating in a competition, Avengers Primary School had won three expensive I-Pads for usage during lessons. Being expensive prized-possessions, the I-Pads were locked safely in a vault next to the principal's office when they were not being used. Many of the students were excited to view these devices and always talked about them. Unfortunately, within two weeks of winning the devices, they were stolen from the vault. Upon investigation, a set of keys was found in the bag of Thanos, a 13 year- old Grade 7 learner at the school. Although he repeatedly stated that the keys were for his personal safe at his home, the investigators found that they were a replica of the original keys to the vault at the school. In addition, some of his fellow classmates stated that they had seen him using an I-Pad after school on his way home. Furthermore, his fingerprints were found on the vault. Thanos, however, continuously denied that he had stolen the devices from the school. ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS Your assignment should include: 1. A suitable introduction (5 Marks) 2.
