Murder accused waits for bail appeal ruling

Kai Rust, 43, the alleged killer of a suspected poacher, will hear a ruling in his appeal against bail refusal on 27 June.
Rust lodged an application for appeal after Magistrate Masule Kwizi in February this year dismissed his bail application.
Rust has been in custody since 26 January. He faces a charge of murder, three counts of attempted murder, and counts of illegal possession of a firearm and ammunition.
He had allegedly spotted four suspected poachers skinning a kudu they had just killed on the farm Otukaruno about 25km from Okahandja along the Hochfeld road.
