• On Friday afternoon 26/09/2025 a suspicious Polo hatchback was spotted on the D2773 road . Farmers were informed and asked to monitor the vehicle's movements . When it was spotted returning to Otjiwarongo direction MEFT members , Kyani APU , Nampol and ONP were informed whom then set up a mobile roadblock to intercept the vehicle.

The driver of the Polo failed to stop , drove straight through the roadblock almost hitting one of the officers on the ground .

A high-speed pursuit ensued , when the Polo was finally stopped 1 suspect was arrested while 4 managed to run away .(CR174/09/2025)

Inside the vehicle the meat of to cattle was recovered as well as the unlicenced hunting rifle fitted with a silencer and telescope , various knifes and a hacksaw used for skinning.

We are calling on the Court to set an example to criminals by keeping this suspect, and his accomplices whom he has identified to investigators locked up untill such time that they can appear before court and answer to their crimes .

All of them has had previous run-ins with law enforcement and time and time again that they are still on bail they end up being caught with repeat offences .

Farmers is suffering immense losses due toe poaching and stocktheft , law enforcement officers is being disheartened by arresting the same perpetrators again and again just to have them released on bail AGAIN !

Please let justice prevail for our livestock and our wildlife !
