The Namibian Police Force (NamPol) recorded three murders over the weekend, according to a crime report issued on Sunday.

The lifeless body of a 24-year-old man, identified as Annanias Yambukeni Shilangu, was found lying on the ground with stab wounds at Okongo in the Ohangwena Region on Saturday.

The body was found around 22h50 in the Omulamba residential area with stab wounds to the chest and right shoulder.

No arrest has been made in connection with the incident.

An unknown male body was also found with a stab wound on the neck at about 02h30 on Saturday near a four-way stop alongside the Monte Cristo Road in Windhoek’s Havana residential area.

The body was found by a passerby, who then notified the police.

No arrest has been made in connection with the matter either.

In a separate incident, NamPol at Katima Mulilo are investigating a case of murder, read with the Domestic Violence Act after a 29-year-old man allegedly threw a three-month-old baby on a roof, resulting in the death of the infant.

The incident allegedly occurred on Friday at around 20h00 at the town’s Choto compound.

“It is alleged that the suspect confronted his girlfriend, questioning her as to who the biological father of their three-month-old boy was. He then held the infant by the neck, threw him onto the roof of the house before the infant fell onto the floor and died,” said the report.

The suspect was arrested and is set to appear in the Katima Mulilo Magistrate’s Court on Monday.

Furthermore, a 50-year-old man died on the spot after he allegedly lost control of the vehicle he was driving, causing it to overturn on the Ongha- Ondangwa B1 road in the Oshikoto Region.

The man, identified as Amos Hamunyela, was the sole occupant of the vehicle. The incident allegedly occurred on Saturday at around 22h22 at Ondeihaluka.

All deceased persons’ next of kin have been informed of their deaths. Police investigations in all matters continue.
