MASERU (Reuters) - Lesotho’s Prime Minister Thomas Thabane appeared in court on Monday to hear charges of murdering his estranged wife, a Reuters witness saw.
Thabane had initially been scheduled to hear the charges on Friday, but left to South Africa instead for what aides said was a medical appointment.
He is suspected of involvement in the murder of his then-wife Lipolelo, who shot dead in June 2017, two days before he took office for a second stint as premier.
