One woman, who claimed to have come across the culprit, said she was so shocked that she could not even scream.  The woman, who preferred anonymity, said she was awoken in the middle of the night by the scratch of matches, only to see the man by the window.

After realising he had been noticed the man vanished into the night. Contacted for comment the police could neither confirm nor deny the allegations.

'There is speculation but we cannot confirm anything as yet,' said Superintendent Kedumetse.

Meanwhile, the police together with Dilaene Ward residents, amongst them its headman are said to have held a meeting yesterday to discuss these concerns.

In another case, police have apprehended a young man for shop break-in. The man is understood to have a mental disability. He is said to have recently escaped from Sbrana Mental Hospital in Lobatse. Police investigations continue.
