Otjinene farmers lose over 100 livestock to theft
Breadcrumb
The farming community in the Otjinene constituency of the Omaheke Region has called on law enforcement officers not to release stock theft suspects on bail and to ensure that they are given long prison sentences.
Stock theft threatens the livelihoods of already struggling local farming communities, who are already faced with the burden of drought.
The farming community's group spokesperson, Uaenena Zakaapi, says recently a farmer lost four cattle, and a month earlier another one was robbed of 25 small stock.
