Former spy chief, Isaac Kgosi is demanding back guns that were seized from his house by the State.

In his effort to retrieve the guns, the former director of Directorate of Intelligence and Security (DIS) has filed a notice of motion before Court seeking it to compel the government to return his firearms and ammunition that were seized sometime back in February 2019. According to his papers filed this week, Kgosi said on February 15, 2019 he had a rude awakening when officers from the Botswana Police and DIS served him with a warrant of entry, then searched and seized his property without explaining why and what charges he was facing. He explained that during the house search, the officers took his firearms and ammunition in different models and now he wants them back.

In his founding affidavit, Kgosi says there has been a pattern of harassment against him, which explained the seizure of his firearms and ammunition.
