Five men who were arrested for holding an illegal meeting of the United Democratic Party (UDP) appeared in the Katima Mulilo Magistrate's Court.

They were all released on bail of N$10,000 each with conditions to surrender their travel documents to the investigating officer and not acquire new ones while on bail.

Harris Mushe (41), Benjamin Kubona (68), Christopher Ziambo (56), Ben Kumpoma (53), and Mubonda Mubonda (57) told the court that they would conduct their own defence after their rights to legal representation were explained to them.

Other conditions include not conducting illegal meetings while on bail and having to come to court until the finalisation of the cases they face.

Their case was postponed to July 18 for further investigations.
