MBABANE: “Sometimes we burn your property and leave you alive, depending on the magnitude of what you did to Swazis during and after the June 29 political unrest”.
These were the sentiments of the female Commander of the Swaziland International Solidarity Forces(SISF) when speaking to this Swaziland News on Thursday.
The Commander said there were high profile people who owned multi-million properties, however, she said they were not interested in burning those properties if they committed serious crimes against the Swazis in the midst of the political unrest.
“I would make an example, if the person was commanding the security forces that killed civilians, you cannot just burn their property and leave them alive. At times we arrive and just burn their properties as a warning without killing them if we feel they committed a minor offence. But we can still come back and kill them if they continue. Ngeke nje utsi ubulele emaSwati kangaka bese sitsi sitakushisela nje kuphela,” said the female Commander.
Dozens have been killed by Mswati’s security forces since the political unrest started in June 2021.
On another note, the female Commander said they were also monitoring certain people who targeted political leaders on behalf of Mswati.
