A 54-year-old South African national died on Saturday after he was allegedly shot with a pistol at farm Kaross in the Kamanjab district by a 51-year-old British male suspect.
According to the Namibian police weekend crime report, issued yesterday, it is alleged that the two had an argument at the farm leading to the shooting.
The deceased was identified as Gerhardus van Wyk and his next of kin were informed.

The police reportedly received a tip-off about a Ford courier vehicle, driven by the suspect, transporting drugs.
