The High Court in Windhoek is set to hear arguments on Friday regarding the recusal of Zimbabwean Judge Moses Chinhengo from the ongoing Fishrot trial. 

Nigel van Wyk, a key figure in the scandal, is seeking the judge's recusal, alleging bias and fears of not receiving a fair trial.

Van Wyk's lawyer, Mbanga Siyomunji, filed the notice of motion with the court, highlighting instances where they believe the judge showed bias and violated their constitutional rights. 

They argue that Judge Chinhengo pressed unrepresented accused individuals to plead despite their requests for more time to secure legal representation.

The outcome of tomorrow's hearing could have significant implications for the Fishrot trial, which has gripped the nation with its revelations of corruption at the highest levels of government and business.
