Shane and Sheldon Shorey are to be buried together in Wellington after being killed in an alleged hit and run.(Supplied)
The ruling comes after the boy s mother Shayleen Frail fought to have her sons buried together and on country .Â
Father Joseph Shorey had proposed for the brothers to be cremated and their ashes divided. The boys had a strong connection with the Aboriginal community in Wellington and their unique body of beliefs, Ms Frail s lawyers said in a statement to 9News following the court outcome. Our client made an application to the Supreme Court because it was her wish for the boys to be buried to allow them to have a final resting place where their spirits can enter the Dreamtime.
