Reversing the law

Dear Editor,
Your front page photo of December 6 caught my eye and I remembered a strange happening that occurred, recently.
A  lady saw some cows passing through an open savannah close to her farm in Moblissa.
She chopped two of them and the owner reported the matter. The lady was charged, appeared in court and pleaded guilty to the offence. However, after all of this, one of the defendant’s friends in high office caused the charge and consequent punishment to be withdrawn and instructed that the owner of the cow be now charged for allowing his cow to roam.
It must be noted that this savannah is considered pasture for all cows to graze.
Does this mean that, if applicable in this instance, the pound system does not work any longer?
As an old friend of mine had once asked – What nonsenseness is this?
Janet Barakat
