The Fishrot corruption trial, set to commence today before High Court Judge Moses Chinhengo, has been postponed to Thursday, 6 February, due to the judge's unavailability.

The Ministry of Health and Social Services has announced the temporary closure of the Mondesa Clinic in Swakopmund following a fire incident that broke out in the early hours of Monday.

The Prosecutor General's office is yet to decide on whether the state will prosecute two police officers who are accused of killing 30-year-old Keetmanshoop resident Elleste Plaatjie.

The High Court has once again postponed a judgement in Nigel Van Wyk's review application for some charges against him to be dropped.

His lawyer, Mbanga Siyumunji, informed nbc News that the judgement for Van Wyk's review application has been set for March 25.

After years of legal hurdles and postponements, the high-profile Fishrot corruption trial is finally set to begin tomorrow, that is if there are no surprise applications to halt the scheduled proceedings.
