FRANCISTOWN: A former BCL Mine employee who murdered his girlfriend by stabbing her with a knife several times in front of their children recently escaped the hangman’s noose after the court ruled that there were extenuating circumstances in the matter.

Mantswe was convicted on his own plea of guilt to the murder.
