Bonolo Elizabeth Mapitse (Kerekang) died in the most gruesome way. She was found beheaded in Tlokweng, whilst the State has since withdrawn the case against her murder suspected boyfriend, Simon Kgowe with liberty to reinstate. Mmegi staffer SHARON MATHALA gleans on statement of the woman friend who was last to see the deceased

Back in 2018, the nation was shocked to learn of the news that a woman’s body was found beheaded in Tlokweng. Months later the police made another shocking discovery as a skull was found by some manual workers at Gaborone’s Block 7, not far from her parents’ home. At the time, Mapitse had already been buried without her head, her family had to endure further grief.

Since the matter was withdrawn by the State, it has never been clear what exactly happened to Mapitse. Mmegi is in possession of a statement of the friend who is possibly one of the few people who last saw Mapitse alive.
