Gov't secures key victory against Khama

The much-needed victory comes after the State vowed it was not liable to Khama and his requests, especially after one of his requests being a trip to India to see the spiritual world leader Dalai Lama compromised the country’s relations with Asian giant, China.

On Friday the Court of Appeal bench agreed with the government that the High Court was wrong to rule that the former statesman was entitled to all the benefits and that he was to be compensated in full for the India trip.
