Wednesday, February 24, 2016

Attorney Modise David breathed a sigh of relief yesterday after Justice Tshepo Motswagole revoked a warrant of arrest against him, after he failed to appear in court for the Ledumadumane murder trial.

Lawyer Modise David was yesterday slapped with a warrant of arrest by High Court Justice Tshepo Motswagole before it was revoked.

Motswagole issued the warrant after David failed to appear during court proceedings without giving any reason. David was to appear before court yesterday in the ongoing trial dubbed ‘Ledumadumane murder trial’. In the case three men: Mabogo Lesotlho, Kgololo Lesotlho (who are cousins) and Montwedi Molefe are accused of jointly and unlawfully killing one Ishmael Moseki during a football match played at Ledumadumane on February 25, 2012.
