Another arrest in Shiweda case

SHORT NEWS
STAFF REPORTER
Dr Fillemon ‘Fly’ Nakanduungile, a northern-based medical doctor, is the latest individual to be arrested in connection with the 17 October shooting of Justine Shiweda, a control and regional court prosecutor for the Ondangwa district.



Nakanduungile appeared in the Ondangwa Magistrate's Court on Thursday, facing charges of attempted murder and conspiracy to commit murder. The specifics of his alleged role in the attack on Shiweda remain unclear.



Shiweda was shot in the legs and attacked with an acidic substance outside her home while preparing for work last month. She has since undergone multiple surgeries.



Nakanduungile joins several other suspects, including former police officer Abner Mateus.



Nakanduungile, a general practitioner based in Ondangwa, was remanded in custody, with his case postponed to 16 March 2026.
