Maseru, Aug.26—- A case in which some members of the Lesotho Defence Force including Retired Army Commander Tlali Kamoli are accused of the 2014 bombings has on Monday failed to proceed as the defence team demand pending payment of their pro deo legal fees.
The case which was on Friday last week adjourned to today failed to proceed as scheduled and was postponed to Wednesday for continuation.
Among the witnesses who have testified in this case is Major General Ramanka Mokaloba. He testified that Kamoli told him about a plan to attack the homes of Liabiloe Ramoholi at Moshoeshoe II and Khothatso Tsooana at Ha Abia in 2014.
During cross-examination the witness was accused by legal representative for Kamoli, Advocate Letuka Molati, of being responsible for the planning and execution of the attacks.
The witness was also accused of being an influential and cunning person who has powerful people in his corner who always save him whenever he is in trouble. Adv. Molati also indicated that he always escapes the wrath of the law adding that he does things and throws other people under the bus.
The accused who also include Pitso Ramoepana, Litekanyo Nyakane, Heqoa Malefane and Mohlalefi Seitlheko are facing charges including attempted murder and malicious damage to property.
The case is before Justice Charles Hungwe.
