More voter trafficking skeletons tumble out

Friday, May 30, 2014

Forty people who are illegally registered as staying at the same plot in Bontleng, could vote in the October elections as the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) says the period given for inspection of the voters’ roll has ended.

Barring a court interdict by aggrieved contestants, the 40 people will participate in the general elections, having been registered as staying on one plot in Bontleng.

Mmegi investigations this week indicate that the plot number in Bontleng ward given for the 40 names is in neighbouring Selemela ward and actually consists of an incomplete structure. The voters’ roll for the area indicates that all 40 people are registered as staying on the same plot.
