Mochudi Police Accused Of Colluding In Floggings
Monday, May 31, 2010
A 56-year-old man, Tselapedi Mooketsi who was whipped at the Mochudi Kgotla last year, has accused the police of exposing him to a "kangaroo court" that subjected him to the severe beating.
Mooketsi is suing the police for P75,000 over this matter. Mooketsi had an outstanding issue with Mmusi Kgafela over bridles that were stolen at the royal homestead. Mmusi is the younger brother to the Bakgatla paramount chief Kgafela II.Mooketsi said Mmusi and his vigilante group raided his home in Artesia and took away his bridles, claiming they were the ones that had been stolen from them. He said when he went to make a report against Mmusi, at the Dibete Police Station, he was locked up. He claimed that the police detained him at the insistence of Mmusi - who had turned up at the police station. Mooketsi said when he was transferred to the Mochudi Police Station he discovered that Mmusi had not reported any case against him.
The contest had 10 beautiful young girls as finalists and unfortunately only one could wear the crown.The judges picked Anicia Gaothuse. To all those who feel their contestant should have won ahead of Anicia for whatever reason, hardly; the judges found Anicia to be the best among the best, so desist from disrespecting our newly crowned queen on social media or anywhere else, for that matter! Each of the 10 beautiful young women had supporters...
