LOBATSE: Benson Keganne, who was found guilty of murder two years ago might be removed from death row after it emerged that there is a presidential undertaking that he will not be sent to the gallows.

This development came to the fore Thursday when attorney Joao Salbany representing Keganne applied for postponement of their appeal at the beginning of the first session of the Court of Appeal (CoA). Salbany reasoned that they were served with an incomplete record of proceedings by the state towards the end of December last year.

"The record of proceedings is incomplete as there is a presidential undertaking not to effect death penalty against my client and that undertaking is not in the record as we speak", Salbany said. On the other hand, Mosweu Ditodi, on behalf of the State, opposed the postponement arguing that grounds advanced by Keganne were not sound.
