Was Kgosi's Arrest Different From Others?

The most talked about was the arrest of former Directorate of Intelligence and Security (DIS) boss, Isaac Kgosi. A number of people celebrated his arrest, while some here and there, were not too pleased with the arrest. It was not shocking for the news to grab each and every citizen’s attention, since it was Kgosi who was arrested.This is the once powerful man who as he once relayed when he appeared before the Public Accounts Committee (PAC), did not answer to anyone, not even the President.

While the DIS did not reveal Kgosi’s charges as yet many speculated on what they might be, as some citizens have been calling for his arrest for the longest time. Every citizen of Botswana has a right to be treated with dignity and for their rights to be respected, while at the same it is each and every citizen’s responsibility to abide by and uphold the laws of the country. The laws should apply equally to all citizens, rich or poor, educated or illiterate.
