Kgosi goes after architects of airport arrest

In a movie style sting, Kgosi was nabbed by a team of intelligence officers and other law enforcement, handcuffed and taken into custody upon his return from India. The incident took place in front of media and appeared coordinated by Peter Magosi, Kgosi’s successor at the Directorate of Intelligence and Security (DIS). Magosi personally escorted Kgosi into waiting vehicles outside the airport.

This week, authoritative sources told Mmegi Kgosi’s lawyers had prepared papers against several high-ranking officials allegedly involved in the sting. Those being served with papers include officials at the BURS, the Botswana Defence Force and the DIS. The list reportedly includes a magistrate and a host of others linked to the arrest and subsequent investigation which included several raids at Kgosi’s properties.
