Tebelopele, Gabz fm tussle in court :: Mmegi Online

Tebelopele Voluntary Counselling and Testing Centre (TVCT) and Gabz fm have agreed to settle out of court in a matter in which TVCT is suing the local radio station half a million for defamation. The two parties through their attorneys Omphemetse Motumise and Khululekani Moyo, respectively, yesterday appeared before Gaborone High Court Judge Key Dingake where they agreed to forge a way forward.

Both TVCT and Gabz fm told court that they would resolve the matter outside the courtroom, and if they reached an agreement, they would draft a consent order and deliver it to court in due time. If the two parties fail to agree, the trial will commence in October this year.

The shameful boardroom wheeling and dealing came to the fore in 2012 when Gabz fm aired what is alleged to be a live recording of a meeting of the board members of TVCT.
