Attack on Saleshando is by extension attack on BCP

A certain Alex Mosimaneotsile, recently went wild, ranting and panting in an article titled "A response to Dumelnag Saleshando" appearing in Mmegi of 25th June 2009.

I have doubts if this is the writer's real name, and I also have strong conviction that he is a Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) operative, judging by his tenacious and vigorous defense of stale BDP government policies. I will therefore, for purposes of this discussion, continue to refer to him as such. In his article Mosimaneotsile accuses Saleshando of making irresponsible and obviously misguided and uninformed remarks about security agents carrying out extra judicial killings.

It is common knowledge that the upsurge in extra judicial killings by security agents and especially the recent cold blooded shooting of John Kalafatis, have sent waives of shock across the nation, from churches, to civil society, politicians and ordinary citizens. The Law Society of Botswana gave BOCONGO a statement and Ditshwanelo , condemning this inhumane acts perpetuated by security agents. Rre Sidney Pilane, a staunch BDP member and many others have voiced his concern at the killing of Kalafatis and the careless handling of the issue by the leadership.
