Today is the status hearing for the case in which the Law Society of Botswana (LSB) and attorney Omphemetse Motumise are challenging President Ian Khama’s decision to reject Motumise as a High Court judge.

Attorney for the LSB and Motumise, Tshiamo Rantao said this matter has been scheduled for status hearing to confirm November 9, 2015 as a date for argument. “The interesting developments are that the LSB will be filing an interlocutory application to have the complete minutes of the 1966 London Bechuanaland Constitutional Conference filed.

Gabz Fm has also filed an application to be allowed to broadcast the proceedings live. We will see tomorrow [today] what transpires at the status hearing,” said Rantao.
