Puso turns down Kgafela

Kgosi Kgafela is trying to crystallise civic society against extra-judicial killings that have taken place over the past year in Botswana. The Bakgatla sovereign confirmed yesterday that Kgosi Gaborone had told him that his Kgotla would not be available on June 16.

At least 14 suspected criminals have been shot and killed by state security agents since April last year, sparking fears that extra-judicial executions could be replacing due process.
