Wife on trial for husband's murder

NAMPA
Six people arrested in connection with the 2015 death of a Windhoek municipal worker are expected to plead to the charges against them in the High Court today. The defendants include the dead man's wife.

Peter Muleke (36) was found dead a few metres from his car in the Goreangab Dam area on the western outskirts of Katutura on 31 March 2015.

The accused are Muleke's wife, Annastacia Lubinda (33); David Likando Matali (45); Dave Kondjera (32); Abiud Uazeua (35); Donald Hindjou (26); and Dollam Tjitjahuma (27).

They are represented by lawyers Mbanga Siyomuinji, Milton Engelbrecht, Brownwell Uirab, Miriam Kenaruzo, Trevor Brockerhoff and Tuna Nhinda. Newly appointed acting High Court judge Johanna Salionga is presiding.

State advocate Martino Olivier is representing the State.

The six appeared in the Katutura Magistrate's Court for the first time on 7 April 2015 and were denied bail due to the seriousness and complexity of the case. Since then, they have remained in police custody at the Windhoek Central Correctional Facility with no option to post bail until the start of their trial today.
