Murder appeal case a mystery to lawyers

The Court of Appeal roll issued this week shows that Molefhe and Motswana Brandon Samson, who were jointly convicted of murder and sentenced to death, will be in the dock appealing their conviction and sentence. The court of appeal session is scheduled for July 5.

Contacted yesterday, Molefhe's attorney, Ookeditse Maphakwane, was surprised at the court roll yesterday saying he knows nothing about the case. He said that he has not received any correspondence from the court and he has not accessed the case record. Attorney Duma Boko is representing Samson.
