A senior police officer yesterday appeared in the Windhoek Magistrate’s Court on charges of corruption and fraud after his brother-in-law was appointed to the force despite having a criminal record.
The head of Nampol’s human resources department, Commissioner Abed Kashihakumwa, is accused of appointing his brother-in-law, Sakaria Ashipala, in 2011 – months after he was fired from the force after being convicted of theft.
Kashihakumwa was granted N$5 000 bail yesterday and the case was postponed to 25 August.
