The information we are getting here suggests that she is fearing for life claiming there are people who wanted to shoot her dead” said our reporter who was in court on Tuesday.

King Mswati was exposed through an electronic evidence implicating resigned Army Commander Jeffery Shabalala, having ordered the arrest of pro-democracy MPs Bacede Mabuza and Mthandeni Dube merely for demanding democratic reforms.
Despite the arrest of the people’s representatives, King Mswati claimed eSwatini was democratic.
“There are people who are calling for democracy and they claim to know democracy better, eSwatini is democratic” said the King.
Eswatini is a tiny Kingdom with about 70% of the population living below the poverty line. The country is ruled by Mswati as an absolute with Executive, Judicial and Legislative powers, political parties are banned from participating in elections and the King appoints and influence Judges.
