FRANCISTOWN: Justice Barnabas Nyamadzabo has told a man convicted of murdering his girlfriend and mother of his two children that reasoning she was cheating on him while it was not the case, is a flimsy excuse.

Nyamadzabo said this on Friday when delivering judgement in a case in which Neo Mongaka, popularly known as ‘Mantshwabisi’ in social circles, was found guilty of murdering Keoagile Malebeswa at Mosinyi ward in Marobela village on February 27, 2017. The postmortem report showed that Malebeswa sustained 24 external stab wounds in addition to multiple internal ones.

Nyamadzabo said Mongaka submitted that he murdered Malebeswa in self-defence adding that, that was implausible since there were a lot of inconsistencies in Mongaka’s evidence vis-a-vis evidence of state witnesses.
