The state has suffered a fatal blow on its attempt to convict fund manager and prime suspect Bakang Seretse in the alleged controversial P250 million National Petroleum Fund (NPF) case.
Lat week Magistrate Kamogelo Mmesi discharged suspect Seretse and his chief co-accused from all corruption charges leveled against them.
She said the Directorate of Public Prosecutions (DPP) compiled a defective charge sheet which is ambiguous and embarrassing.
Magistrate Mmesi said the particulars are also vague and embarrassing in such that they mention that accused number 1 Kenneth Kerekang and accused number 18 Isaac Kgosi were influenced and in the same particulars Kgosi is mentioned in the alternative with Kerekang.
