Haseb/ Nande case postponed

The court case of former Namibia Sports Commission employees Walter Haseb and Yvonne Nande has been postponed until the 26th of June, after a brief appearance on Monday. Magistrate Vanessa Stanley postponed the case, because of yet-to-be submitted documents from the National Sports, Bank Windhoek and Nedbank. Haseb and Nande who face charges of corruptly using their office for personal gain have been out on bail of N$40 000 each since September last year. The amount of funds allegedly misappropriated comes close to five million Namibia dollars. These funds were initially aimed at funding different sport codes in the country. Nande is further accused of having offered the auditors N$400 000 to squash the findings. She, however, strongly denies these allegations. The mandatory bail conditions set by Stanley are: - - They must report to their nearest police station every Friday. - - They must hand in their traveling documents as they may not attempt to apply for travelling documentation - - They must not leave the country without the consent of the authorities. Nande was represented by Kadhila Amoo and Haseb by Vetu Uanivi.
