On the sub-judice rule

For context, I make copious reference from the court judgement on the published words that got the lawyer and the newspaper in trouble:

“The trial of a woman who suffered 10 years of abuse at the hands of her common law husband, whom she allegedly murdered in 1996, is set to make legal history in Botswana. Seponono Harvey will be the first person to claim that she was a victim of battered woman syndrome, and should therefore, not be held criminally responsible for her acts. Metlhaetsile Women’s Information Centre in Mochudi will raise the defence of battered women syndrome when they defend Harvey before Lobatse High Court judge, Justice Aboagye.
