Former PS charged with corruption
MASERU – MOTENA Tšolo, the former Principal Secretary in the Ministry of Finance, is facing charges of corruption and abuse of public office.
Tšolo appeared in the Maseru Magistrates’ Court yesterday.
She was charged together with Mafusi Mosamo, a senior official in the Ministry of Finance. They are alleged to have been part of a corrupt scheme to receive bribes from people who wanted the government to hire their vehicles.
Tšolo confirmed that she had been charged but said she was not sure about the charges “because they were just reading sections”.
Teboho Tlokotsi and Tumo Ramonaheng, who are alleged to have been part of the sleaze, have already been charged.
