A team of prosecutors and investigators from Iceland is on a visit to Namibia to probe the alleged involvement of Icelandic citizens in the Fishrot scandal.

The Anti-Corrpution Commission (ACC) says the team arrived in Namibia last Monday and will return to Iceland tomorrow.

The ACC said in a statement that an Icelandic delegation of investigators is currently in Namibia to investigate the potential involvement of their nationals who are alleged to be involved in the Fishrot corruption case.

The delegation, which consists of investigators and prosecutors, met with their counterparts at Namibia's Anti-Corruption Commission last Monday.

The ACC says the goal is to assess Namibia's progress in its investigation, conduct investigations into the possible role played by their nationals in the Fishrot corruption allegations, and gather evidence that will assist in building up their case.

Being in Namibia is part of the two countries' international cooperation in dealing with corruption-related crimes.
