'Where was Tlotso murdered?'

The disappearance and tragic murder of a Standard 1 pupil, Tlotso Karema, has angered the public and rightfully so! As events are unfolding, the child was allegedly kidnapped by his stepfather, Lovemore Sithole, who has already appeared before the Lobatse Magistrate's Court on a single count of murder.

The stepfather appeared in court on July 7 according to a widely circulated press release by the Botswana Police Service (BPS) Public Relations Unit.

While the police have clearly stated that investigations are still ongoing, information that has been made public suggests that the boy was kidnapped by someone he knew and trusted to protect him against harm and danger.
