Khama demands Peloetletse pays P1.5m for defamation

Khama has instructed his attorneys to demand a retraction and an unconditional apology from Peloetletse over a statement the latter allegedly published on the Gabz FM news page, with contents about his former BDP leader. On top of that, Khama is demanding that Peloetletse pays damages for defamation in the sum of P1,500,000.

According to the letter, Peloetletse is said to have written that soldiers suffered more under the Khama regime than his predecessors. Peloetletse allegedly accused Khama of stealing funds from the United Nations (UN), which were meant to remunerate soldiers who were involved in UN operations during his tenure as the Botswana Defence Force (BDF) commander.
