BIUST appeals whistleblower case :: Mmegi Online

Following a High Court decision which directed that a BIUST whistle- blower did not act out of any malice, the university has since lodged an appeal against the order. The case emanates from a court battle between the Botswana International University of Science and Technology (BIUST) and its suspended employee , Dr Malatsi Galani, who is also a Botswana Sectors of Educators Trade Union (BOSETU) shop steward.

Dr Galani who is serving suspension was dragged before court by his employer after a damning press conference by BOSETU where it made his case public. For his part, Dr Galani says he never revealed any confidential information but instead made the union aware of his situation and why he may fail to execute his shop steward duties.

The case was heard at the Lobatse High Court after BIUST filed an urgent appeal to interdict Galani from sharing any more information the university deems confidential to any third parties.
