DA opens criminal cases against illegitimate Ditsobotla Troika
Mafikeng Mail
|June 27, 2025
The DA in North West hasopened criminal cases against the Ditsobotla mayor-pretender, Cllr Molefe Morutse (ANC), the Speaker-pretender, Cllr Manana Bogatsu (EFF), and the Municipal Manager-pretender, Oloatse Bojosinyane, under the Prevention and Combating of Corrupt Activities Act, Act 12 of 2004, for fraud, intimidation, coercion, and extortion.
-
These criminal cases relate to the establishment of an illegal parallel Ditsobotla Council at a meeting held in March 2025, where it is alleged that fraudulent resignation letters from the legitimate Mayor, Speaker and legally appointed Acting Municipal Manager were presented and where they were illegally removed from office.
After this illegal parallel Council meeting, Mr Bojosinyane managed to gain access to the Ditsobotla municipal offices, resulting in two gunfights which saw two persons injured and the death of another.
