Answers
Answer:
The merchant was accused the second time because the merchant's father was accused for the death of the thief . Since he was no more the merchant was to be punished . The merchant tried to escape by saying that it was his father's fault and not his , that the wall was built weak . But they did not agree with him because they wanted to punish someone for the crime . They declined saying that the son inherits not only the father's wealth but also his sins.
