Spy agent Butterfly wants state to pay her costs

The 46-year-old Butterfly, who is charged with financing terrorism by moving money around linked to former spy chief, Isaac Kgosi, says it is the right thing for the state to do since the Directorate of Public Prosecutions (DPP) launched criminal charges against her despite the fact that they did not find evidence against her in all charges she is facing. 

Maswabi appeared before judge Michael Mothobi of the Gaborone High Court last week making submissions on why the state ought to pay her costs explaining that she has on many occasions in her applications submitted evidence that the state failed to challenge or prove as false.
