Prosecutor-General Martha Imalwa delivered an emotional tribute to the family of the late Ondangwa-based prosecutor, Justine Shiweda.

She described Shiweda as an outstanding and committed prosecutor who was simply doing her job. Imalwa added that her death will not be in vain.

Prosecutor-General Martha Imalwa has said that the late control prosecutor, Justine Shiweda, paid the ultimate price, and if she were to be declared a national hero, the legal fraternity would be pleased.

Imalwa further said that Shiweda’s legacy will continue to shine and praised her zeal for life, noting that only one of the four bullets had been recovered from her body at the time of her death.

She encouraged the legal fraternity not to be deterred but to remain committed to the oath they took. 

Imalwa also urged journalists to publish the faces of criminals so that society can recognise them if they cross paths.
