Chief Justice (CJ) Maruping Dibotelo is on a warpath again. Mmegi is informed that the secretary of the Judicial Service Commission (JSC), Michael Motlhabi, has on the instructions of the JSC written to four other Judges who two years ago signed a petition against Dibotelo to apologise.

The JSC, chaired by Dibotelo, sat last week and this week Motlhabi served Justices Gaolapelwe Ketlogetswe, Lot Moroka, Godfrey Nthomiwa and Tshepo Motswagole with notices to apologise for the petition.

JSC sources claim that the decision to force the four Judges to apologise to Dibotelo was unanimous as they felt the issue was water under the bridge. In March this year, President Ian Khama lifted the suspension of the four Judges and disbanded a Tribunal that was appointed to enquire into their conduct. On September 1, 2015, Khama suspended four Judges, Key Dingake, Modiri Letsididi, Mercy Garekwe and Ranier Busang for alleged misconduct after it was found that they were paid undue housing allowances.

Each of the 10 beautiful young women had supporters...
