“She was terrified at being surrounded by six men. They gave her until [5 June] to supply them with evidence, failing which they were going to arrest her,” an unnamed source told the publication. “She wasn’t interviewed as a suspect. The team simply sought to [have her clarify some issues] in her official capacity. Her death is unfortunate and any intimation that it was related to the visit of the ID team is contemptible and ill-informed. The ID team won’t be used to create sensation about such untruths,” Seboka added.
