Case against Amos Mbedzi2008 - 2012

In 2008, Amos Mbedzi took part in an attempt to bomb a bridge in Eswatini with an explosive device. Mbedzi and two of his comrades were under the bridge preparing the device when it exploded prematurely, severely wounding Mbedzi and killing his two comrades, without damaging the bridge. A passing car brought Mbedzi to a hospital, where he was arrested one hour later. Mbedzi was charged with sedition for the bombing attempt and with murder for the deaths of his comrades.
