    I respective of the religion of the minor the crime is crime. It is clear that he has done this crime with support or backing of some major ppl. No boy of 14 years alone can do this that too in a city lije Udupi. So ouce should enquire thoroughly and find out the brain behind this incident and punish them

    Minor ? Where did he get the currency from ?

    Noting that people immediately got to know that the currency is fake, it must have printed on some cheap paper. Did the minor do it all by himself ? Or, does he have accomplices ? All need to go behind bars.

    A currency is the identity of a nation, as important as is its flag. Playing prank with it is equal to anti-national action. Please educate your children about the importance of national symbols.
