19 December 2017: Francistown High Court Judge Moesi sentenced Mooketsi Kgosibodiba to death for the murder of Benjamin Makobela back in 2012 at Makobo village.
Kgosibodiba had stolen a bag of cement and a water container belonging to his employer (Makobela) then killed him to cover up the crime. Makobela’s decomposed body was discovered inside a hut that the duo used to share. Passing the sentence, Moesi said he was satisfied that Kgosibodiba was the person who murdered the deceased and that he caused his death with malice afterthought.
