Dr Victor Shale labelled Thabane’s failure to appear in court as a delaying tactic.
“This is indeed a novel case in our country and whose determinations we eagerly anticipate having heard submissions on both sides and on authority of the decision of the Court of Appeal in the case of Mothobi and another vs the crown to which this court was referred I find that there is indeed a substantial question of law raised the application for referral to the high court is granted.”
Thabane’s wife Lipolelo was shot dead in June 2017. They were going through divorce proceedings at the time. It happened two days before he took office for a second stint as PM, and two months before he married Maesaiah.Calls for Thabane to step down
