BOTSWANA POLICE SERVICE MEDIA RELEASE: “INVESTIGATIONS ON MR. GOMOLEMO MOTSWALEDI’S DEATH COMPLETE” 

On the 30th July 2014 a fatal road accident which claimed the life of Mr. Gomolemo Motswaledi along A1 road near Pitshane Village was reported to the police. 

The police immediately embarked on the investigations to determine the cause of the accident and the resultant death of Mr. Motswaledi. 

These investigations have since been completed and the family of the deceased have been informed of the findings.

It is not common practice for the Botswana’s Police Service to publicise the findings of police investigations of this nature, but for speculations and innuendos made by some commentators in the mainstream media and social media regarding this accident, we have found it necessary to make public the result of this particular investigation. 

The investigations reveal that Mr. Motswaledi’s death was the result of a road accident uninduced by any foul play.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who assisted and cooperated during the investigations. Their continued support of the police in the execution of their mandate is highly appreciated.

Keabetswe Makgophe

Commissioner of Police
