A former magistrate of Oshakati, Melanie Theron, who faced 18 charges of corruption and bribery, was discharged on three counts yesterday by Judge Nate Ndauendapo.
He, however, ruled that she must be placed on defence on the remaining 15 similar charges and will have to answer on those charges.
Theron was arrested in August 2011 on 18 charges of corruption, bribery and extortion stemming from the time she was employed at the Oshakati Magistrate’s Court between 26 May 2011 and 15 August 2011.
