BDF murder judgement reserved

Friday, October 02, 2009

FRANCISTOWN: Justice Moses Chinhengo reserved judgement to Friday in a case in which a former Botswana Defence Force (BDF) soldier is facing a single count of shooting and killing his former BDF colleague and two counts of attempted murder.

This came after prosecutor Keneilwe Lephalo of the Directorate of Public Prosecutions (DPP) and defence attorney Sikhumbuzo Masuku made their final submissions yesterday.

According to the charge sheet, on count one, Tiisetso Kgankgetsile, 31, a former BDF soldier, is charged with shooting and killing Mooketsi Radinonyane on July 4, 2006 in Palapye. On the second and third counts, the accused is charged with attempted murder of Kagiso Selala and Tuelo Kwadiba, both civilians at Palapye.
