The magistrates failed to determine the age of the appellants and did not ensure proper procedure for children accused of serious offences. The pleas of guilty by the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th appellants were equivocal, rendering the trials nullities. The convictions and sentences for these appellants are set aside. For the 1st appellant, the conviction is upheld due to corroborative evidence, but the sentence is set aside and substituted with a discharge and caution due to time already served and age at the time of offence.
