Botswana Police Services have arrested two suspects who are believed to have played a critical role in the P5 million Security Systems armed robbery in Kumakwane. The two suspects Kenny Motshwane and Brian Mokgethisi are expected to appear before Molepolole Magistrate on Friday.
SUNDAY STANDARD understands that the other three suspects are still at large. They are said to have fled to South Africa. One of them, Thabo Lekwae is described by intelligence operatives as “a hardcore criminal.”
Lekwae who is among those believed to have skipped the country to South Africa is not new to armed robberies. In August 2011 then Magistrate Barnabas Nyamazabo sentenced him to 18 months in jail for his role in the P21 million Central Medical Store robbery case. Sources close to
