High Court gives Bontshetse reprieve

. The BFA found itself in court after it suspended FRAFA’s secretary general, Isaac Mabuta from all football activities for alleged misappropriation of funds. Mabuta was challenging Bontshetse for the position of FRAFA chairperson. Bontshetse was voted as FRAFA chairperson unopposed over the past weekend.

This happened despite Mabuta’s spirited effort to stop the FRAFA regional elections and assembly that were supposed to have taken place on June 2. Initially, Mabuta succeeded through an urgent court application to stop the election from taking place on June 2. On June 2, the High Court and all the parties in the matter agreed through a consent order to hear the matter on June 8. After the June 8 appearance, which was held in Solomon’s chambers, the court however, did not issue an injunction to stop the elections and assembly from taking place on June 9.
