A magistrate has denied bail to a teenager who reportedly has a premeditation orchestrated on a guard of a Bendendo shopping center.
The 17-year-old, who cannot be identified, appeared on Wednesday afternoon in a children’s job accused of several offenses during the incident on Monday.
The court was played images in which a 20-year-old guard from Melton South was beaten, kicked and dragged to the ground by a group of teenagers.
The court heard that the police claimed that the 17-year-old was a “prime mover” of the group and so malignant had stamped on the guard’s face that he left a footprint of his sneaker.
The court also heard that racial taunts were made during the attack.
The prosecutor said to the court: “A considerable part of the Bendendo community is petrified after the incident, which he called” morally disgusting “.
The police arrested on Wednesday and accused two more men about the attack-one 16-year-old and a 14-year-old, both from the Bendigo region.
They still have to appear in court.
The alleged victim, a member of the Sikh community, has received non-lifferring injuries and has since been released from the hospital.

Hearing bail
The court heard that the teenager suffers from an intellectual disability, has autism, ADHD, had stopped taking medication four months ago.
The prosecutor said the court that the child reportedly had two other premeditation orchestrated and not -laid out on members of the public, who were filmed.
The court heard that one of the alleged victims was a 22-year-old with a reduced vision.
The magistrate said that the 17-year-old was an unacceptable risk for the community.
“These are three separate incidents, all recorded on mobile images that we have all seen and are extremely confronting,” he said.
“They were not provoked and in some cases premeditated when some were filming and acting in concert.“

The teenager remained expressionless when the vision of the attack on the field was played.
Leading senior agent Lizzie Young told the court that the child made the attack full recordings.
“I am a risk for the community,” Mrs Young quoted the youth who is said to have mentioned in his record of interview.
“He said he knew he would be a prison, but didn’t know it would be so early in life.”
The mother of the accused said the court that the boy often drank alcohol and had taken marijuana.
She told the court that she was trying to get support through the NDIS, but had problems after his pediatrician retired.
The court also heard that she was struggling with maintaining borders at home.
The 17-year-old was taken into custody later this month to appear in court again.
