Killer ex-cop to hang

Justice Lot Moroka of the Francistown High Court in 2021 sentenced Mojanki, a former Botswana Police Service (BPS) officer, to death for murdering his ex-girlfriend, Socks who was a former nurse at the Nyangabgwe Referral Hospital.

Subsequently the CoA bench dismissed Mojanki’s appeal citing that the High Court’s finding of no extenuating circumstances was accurate. Handing down judgement on Wednesday, Justice Lakhvinder Singh Walia said the circumstances of court of quo came to the correct conclusion when finding that there were no extenuating circumstances and sentenced the accused person to death.
