Press Statement by the Family of Lt General Maaparankoe Mahao on Sadc Report: 16 February 2016, Maseru, Lesotho
PRESS STATEMENT BY THE FAMILY OF LT GENERAL MAAPARANKOE MAHAO ON SADC REPORT: 16 FEBRUARY 2016, MASERU, LESOTHO Lt General Maaparankoe Mahao’s family has had the opportunity to study Justice Mphaphi Phumaphi Commission of Inquiry Report. As all of us will remember, the Commission was established by SADC to investigate the circumstances surrounding the death of General Mahao and the alleged mutiny against the current leadership of the Lesotho Defence Force (LDF). The Report was endorsed by the SADC Double Troika at its Summit held in Gaborone, Botswana on 18th January, 2016 with an injunction on the Lesotho Government to publish it and implement it. Lt General Mahao’s family once again wishes to express its gratitude to SADC for its efforts in the search for lasting peace and stability in the Kingdom of Lesotho and, in particular, to SADC’s unwavering commitment to get to the bottom of how and why Lt General Mahao was killed on 25th June, 2015. We further express our sincere appreciation of the thorough and professional work carried out by Justice Phumaphi’s Commission of Inquiry in the discharge of its mandate. We are fully aware of the very difficult conditions under which the Commission operated; especially the obstructions it encountered from some with vested interest to have the truth forever buried. Two principal objectives were at the heart of SADC’s decision to establish the Commission of Inquiry. These were the death of Lt General Mahao and the alleged mutiny within the ranks of the LDF. Around the death of Lt General Mahao, some significant progress was made in so far as the Commission ascertained certain facts which dispel and lay to rest the false claims made by the LDF with regards to why he was killed. -

Elections in a Time of Instability Challenges for Lesotho Beyond the 2015 Poll Dimpho Motsamai
ISSUE 3 | APRIL 2015 Southern Africa Report Elections in a time of instability Challenges for Lesotho beyond the 2015 poll Dimpho Motsamai Summary The Kingdom of Lesotho stands at a crossroads. After an attempted coup in August 2014, Parliament was prorogued and elections were brought forward by two years. Lesotho citizens went to the polls on 28 February, but it is unlikely that the outcome of the election – a coalition led by the Democratic Congress – will solve the cyclical and structural shortcomings of the country’s politics. Parties split and splinter; violence breaks out both before and after polls; consensus is non-existent, even among coalition partners, and manoeuvring for position trumps governing for the good of the country. SADC’s ‘Track One’ mediation has had some success but it will take political commitment, currently lacking, to set Lesotho on a sustainable political and developmental path. LESOTHO HELD SNAP ELECTIONS in February 2015 two years ahead of schedule, to resolve a political and constitutional deadlock amid an uncertain security situation. The election was to install a new five-year government after months of government paralysis following the acrimonious collapse of its governing coalition in June last year. Then-prime minister Thomas Thabane suspended Parliament to avoid a vote of no confidence pushed by the opposition and supported by his coalition partner, then-deputy prime minister Mothejoa Metsing.1 What followed was an attempted coup d’état, staged in August by a dismissed commander of the Lesotho Defence Force (LDF) and leading to disruptions in the country’s civil-military equilibrium.2 The underlying and even defining dimension of these developments is reflected in Lesotho’s relatively short democratic history, typified by the entrenched politicisation of state and security administration, fractious politics and violent patterns of contestation over state power. -
Urgent Action
1st update on UA: 263/15 Index: AFR 33/4411/2016 Lesotho Date: 8 July 2016 URGENT ACTION CONTINUED ILL-TREATMENT OF DETAINED SOLDIERS The court martial of 23 members of the Lesotho Defence Force (LDF) for mutiny charges has been postponed to 6 September. Sixteen of the accused remain in custody. The authorities continue to subject the detainees to ill-treatment. On 29 April the Lesotho Appeal Court ruled that the court martial should proceed, and overturned previous High Court orders that the remaining detainees be released on bail. As the Lesotho Defence Force (LDF) had not complied with previous High Court rulings, the defence team approached the Appeal Court in an attempt to compel the LDF to uphold these orders. As such, 16 of the 23 accused soldiers remain in Maseru Maximum Security Prison, whilst the seven men on bail are required to report to barracks three times a day. This is despite the fact that a Southern African Development Community (SADC) Commission of Inquiry report found that there were anomalies relating to the charges of mutiny and recommended that the 23 soldiers facing mutiny charges be granted amnesty from criminal prosecution. Prison authorities subjected the detained soldiers to further ill-treatment as a result of a march organized by the detainees’ children on 16 June, Father’s Day. When the march was announced, five of the detained soldiers were placed in solitary confinement and denied food for a day. The wives of the detainees have also reported being stripped searched when visiting their husbands in prison. Opposition members of Parliament tried to visit the detainees after they were placed in solitary confinement but senior LDF officers refused their access and threatened them, saying that they would be shot if they did not leave the prison. -
Urgent Action
Further information on UA: 263/15 Index: AFR 33/3481/2016 Lesotho Date: 23 February 2016 URGENT ACTION TRIAL OF TWENTY-THREE SOLDIERS POSTPONED AGAIN The court martial of 23 members of the Lesotho Defence Force (LDF) for mutiny charges has been postponed to 2 May. Sixteen of the accused remain in custody. The soldiers’ legal team has been facing increased harassment and intimidation, including arrest. The court martial of 23 soldiers charged with mutiny was due to continue on 1 February but has been postponed to 2 May. This is the second time the case is being postponed. Seven of the accused have now been released on military bail. Sixteen soldiers remain in Maseru Maximum Security Prison where they have been held since May 2015. Their continued detention is in contempt of several previous High Court orders for their release. The report of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Commission of Inquiry into the situation in Lesotho made public in early February, found that there was no conclusive evidence of a mutiny plot and that some soldiers were tortured or otherwise ill-treated into implicating others. It recommends that the 23 soldiers be granted amnesty. The report was formally tabled in the Lesotho Parliament on 8 February. Prime Minister Pakalitha Mosisili indicated that the government would only implement some recommendations but has not specified which to date. The team of five lawyers working on the case of the detainees have all received death threats relating to their involvement in the case and have reported being followed and monitored. In November 2015, a ‘hit list’ was circulated on social media.
