FRANCISTOWN: The recent incident of a young woman being catcalled and stripped at the Gaborone Bus Rank on Sunday has been strongly condemned by the Botswana Bus, Truck and Taxi Association (BBTTA).

The vile incident captured on video has gone viral on various social media platforms and gained the attention of the press, showing the woman being verbally abused and forcibly undressed by a group of crazed men with onlookers spurring them on.

The chairperson of BBTTA in Francistown, Tymon Matebesi, did not mince any words when he condemned the actions of the “wicked people” who find joy in openly humiliating others in one of the cruelest forms of public abuse.
