Maseko was assassinated. He was hit by bullets fired through the living room window of his house at Luyengo.<\/p>\n<p>The killer or killers did not enter the home or steal anything. ISS details how there is intense speculation on who organised the hit, which is likely to intensify the political situation in Eswatini.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMaseko was a fierce and effective critic of the government and had often legally represented opposition figures falsely prosecuted for their political views. In 2014 he was jailed for two years for penning a stinging critique of Chief Justice Michael Ramodibedi, whom His Majesty King Mswati III later fired for gross misconduct,\u201d stated ISS in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>Maseko also chaired the Multi-Stakeholder Forum (MSF) \u2013 the country\u2019s body association of political parties and civics. According to ISS, rumours have been swirling about divisions and growing tensions within the opposition.<\/p>\n<p>Since the civil unrest in June and July 2021, violence between oppositionists and government officials has proliferated. It was this eruption that prompted the Southern African Development Community (SADC) to intervene, hence the importance of the institution\u2019s actions going forward.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/eswatini\">Eswatini<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Eswatini.
