Molibeli sues radio station
MASERU-POLICE Commissioner Holomo Molibeli is claiming M1.5 million in damages from 357 FM radio station and Police Constable Motlatsi Mofokeng.
PC Mofokeng is the spokesman for the Lesotho Police Staff Association (Leposa) which has been embroiled in a fierce fight with Commissioner Molibeli over the running of the police.
In court papers filed on February 12, Commissioner Molibeli says on or about January 13 during a phone-in programme at 357 called “Semphu Se Nkha Kae?” presenter Relebohile Moyeye and PC Mofokeng defamed him by saying he was sitting on an assault case of one Thesele Matela.
This is a case in which Matela was allegedly assaulted at the State House by ’Maesaiah Thabane when she was still the first lady.
