The bail applications of six of seven suspects in the murder of Matheus Sheehama, a final-year student at NUST, have been postponed to the 11th of February.

The postponement was due to the absence of a prosecutor on the second day of the bail application in the Walvis Magistrates' Court.

The bail hearing of the former Fisheries and Marine Resources Minister, Bernhardt Esau, has been postponed to the 9th of June.

Esau is implicated in one of the biggest multimillion-dollar fishing corruption scandals.
