Violent crimes, including murders, armed robberies and attempted murders, dominated the country's weekend crime report. 

Police recorded 3 murders, including the killing of a 10-year-old girl in Epako, whose lifeless body was discovered wrapped in a bedsheet at Freedom Square.

Namibia has of late been recording cases of murder, some of which have left minor children parentless.

While some children have become their own providers, others are taken in by relatives who themselves are surviving on meager or no income.
