Central Police Station Commander, Superintendent Calvin Mookodi, said they have not yet arrested anyone in connection with the case but investigations are continuing. Several Rollers’ players suffered from what was suspected to be chemical poisoning during their encounter against Gunners a fortnight ago. The incident is said to have taken place at half time as Rollers’ players returned from the pitch only to be affected by a liquid poured at the entrance to their dressing room. Some of the players affected were Joel Mogorosi, Amos Godirwang, Simesane Mathumo and Onalethata Tshekiso. Mogorosi was said to have been the most affected because he was the first to enter the dressing room. He had to be substituted in the second half.
Botswana Premier League general manager Phuthego Setete said they are awaiting the outcome of the investigations from the Botswana Police before deciding the next course of action. Meanwhile, Setete said the case in which Uniao Flamengo Santos and Rollers are fighting over Mogakolodi Ngele and Thato Bolweleng has been postponed to Monday. He said the Premier League Disciplinary Committee (DC) decided to postpone the case to Monday, as there was need for some witnesses from Santos to testify. Santos reported the matter to the Premier League Committee accusing Rollers of failing to follow proper procedures during their failed attempt to sign the two young players
