The mother of an escaped prisoner has become a shining example of responsibility by taking her son back to jail herself. “My son made a mistake, and I brought him to you myself. Please don’t say anything to him,” the woman can be seen saying in a viral video clip.

According to reports, when the prisoner reached home after escaping from jail, his mother not only explained him what he did was wrong but also showed responsibility by immediately taking him back to jail under police supervision.

Outside the prison, the woman handed over her son to the police, then kept apologising to the police for her son’s mistake. She kept pleading with folded hands that the police not say anything to her son. The woman’s responsible behaviour is being widely praised on social media. People have been commenting that such mothers are the pride of society, and shining examples of honesty.
