The operation of the abovementioned entities were coordinated due to information that was received that a stud bull was slaughtered on the farm Niederungsfelde in the Kalkfeld District. It was verified that the said bull had a valuation of N$80 000 (Eighty Thousand Namibian Dollars). Naturally, the actual damage caused by slaughtering a stud bull cannot be calculated. After the suspects were detained and processed by the Namibian Police it was found that three of the suspects already have pending poaching and/or illegal hunting cases inOtavi, Omaruru and Otjiwarongo, clearly indicating that these suspects are habitual criminals.
Needless to say Namibian Farmers, especially during the past two years, have suffered substantial damages with a definite escalation in the number of incidents and the number of animals stolen or poached across the country and the situation has become endemic. These criminals are becoming more brazen with every incident, slaughtering more and more animals at each instance, and/or slaughtering animals with larger valuation and some animals, including the abovementioned stud bull, have even been slaughtered and left to rot in the "veld".
In the pursuit of fairness and justice it is imperative that these suspects be denied bail so that a clear example can be set for future instances of stock theft. It is time to protect our Namibian Farmers, Farming Communities and general food security in our Country. It is imperative to mention that, with verified information it has been established that the suspects are habitual transgressors and are not likely to desist with their illegal actions.
We therefore urge you to kindly sign this petition and circulate it to as many people as possible to oppose the bail application for these suspect

These criminals are repeat offenders who treat our farms like their personal butcher shops while the justice system drags its feet. I am currently compiling a list of these repeated incidents to hand directly to the authorities because their silence and inaction have gone on long enough.

Poaching whatever species is not only damaging the farmer, but the country. You can eat a piece of meat once, but the breeding offspring of that bull will never be born. Therefore the real damage cannot be calculated.
Afgelope ses jaar nagenoeg 600 stuks kleinvee gesteel en geslag op my plaas. Geen een van die krimenele is nog gestraf nie, alhoewel verskeie sake sl voor hof gekom het maar die sake word nie afgehandel nie.
I am a victim of stock theft from the age of 15 years old when I started farming with boergoats stil at school
It all lies in the hands of the Ministry of Justice. As long as the criminals are rather supported than punished, they will be fuelled to proceed their criminal offences and even wors, people will follow their example as it is easy earned and there is nothing to lose. This means criminality in Namibia will raise sky high. We cry for Namibia
Please do not grant bail to these suspects. I fiarm close to the farm where this bull was slaughtered and we are having lots of stocktheft and poaching incidents.
Hulle moet sit
Stock theft criminals must face a harder punishment without any bail. Stock theft is getting out of hand in Namibia.

Für mich als "Ausländer"-Deutschen ist es schwer bis gar nicht verständlich, dass solche Tätern immer wieder auf Kaution (auf freien Fuß) kommen. Haftstrafen wären m.E. angebrachter.
