Kill the blooming goat to find the owner

A man recently shot a goat that 'trespassed' into his yard, destroying crops and other plants in his backyard.Confirming the incident, Kgosi Oscar Mosielele said since there was apparent resistance from the tribe to keep livestock out of the village, he would not prosecute complaints of livestock killed within the village.  "Up to now, the owner of that goat still hasn't shown up," Kgosi Mosielele said. "We don't know who it is." He added that in future, they will allow people to confiscate straying livestock that disturbs them and whose owners are not known. This comes after a September 2010 deadline to have a livestock-free village passed mainly unheeded. 

In an interview earlier in the year, Kgosi Mosielele said livestock were the root cause of many conflicts in the village because the owners left the animals to roam wildly.
