FRANCISTOWN: Forty-three-year-old Oganetsamang Oatlhotse of Shashemooke village appeared in court for allegedly killing another person while on bail. The state alleges that Oatlhotse murdered Eyani Thini at Jamataka village near Shashemooke on January 29.

Prosecutor Kelebonye Matsapa made an application for Oatlhotse to be remanded in custody because police investigations into the matter have just started.
