Roberts Buncis with his father
A 14-year-old youth accused of murdering a 12-year-old boy is set to stand trial next year.
Roberts Buncis was found dead on ground off Alcorn Green in Fishtoft, near Boston, on Saturday, just two days before his 13th birthday.
A recent photograph showing a smiling Roberts with his father was released through Lincolnshire Police, along with a request for privacy for the family.
The youth accused of the boy’s murder appeared before the Recorder of Lincoln, Judge John Pini QC, in a five-minute hearing on Monday.
