In the latest case, Gaborone High Court will hear how management at the world’s leading diamond miner procured spy equipment without authority from the Directorate of Intelligence and Security (DIS) to spy on employees. A local company Infotrac (Proprietary) Limited owned by one Mompoloki Motshidi claims P100 million and costs of suit against Debswana for breach of contract. Infotrac also seeks 10% interest per month, from date of breach of contract to date of full and final payment.
In court documents filed on June 10, 2020, Infotrac through its attorneys says the cause of action is recovery of a debt based on breach of a verbal consultancy agreement by the defendant. “On or about the January 6, 2018 at Gaborone, the defendant, duly represented by its then managing director, the late Mr Albert Milton, one Mr Mazwigula, one Mr Kewakae and one Mr Keitumetse entered into an oral agreement in terms whereof the plaintiff agreed to provide consultancy services to the defendant,” the attorneys stated. Attorney Tsholofelo Mvungama also said that the final date of delivery of the consultancy services by the plaintiff shall be on or before end of November 2018.
