BNOC And Botswana Police Violence On Journalists Unacceptable

A boisterous mood characterised that build up as members of the public gathered to witness the team arriving at the Sir Seretse Khama International Airport. As always, the media fraternity prepared to cover the event like all before it.

It would seem the Botswana National Olympic Committee (BNOC) had other ideas. Journalists were met with police officers and BNOC officials who had the idea that private media’s access to be limited but rather that only Government media be given vantage points from where to cover the event.
