Lehlohonolo Khotso, now 24, awaits his fate at the Maseru Correctional Facility after a second postponement of his sentencing in two weeks.
On Monday last week the accused stood before presiding judge, Justice Thamsanqa Nomcqongo to hear the final verdict on his murder charge but was done another blow when the matter was deferred with the court saying judgement was not ready.
The prosecution has argued and rested their case and seek for the court to find Khotso guilty as charged and to be punished; while the defence says Khotso was under the influence of alcohol and dagga at the commission of the crime and did not, as a result, have the intention to kill his girlfriend.
