Corrie Pretorius, the man who assaulted a teenager and threatened him with a gun, has been sentenced to either a R12,000 fine or 12-months imprisonment.
The accused has pleaded guilty to the offence, and says he is remorseful.

Pretorius has also been declared unfit to possess a firearm.
The NPA believes the sentence will send a strong message to would-be offenders.
