Abstract:

Volgens die polisie se naweekmisdaadverslag wat vandag uitgereik is, is 'n 71-jarige man Donderdagoggend by 'n restaurant by die Swakopmund-kleinhoewes in hegtenis geneem nadat hy na bewering tydens ‘n lokval vier olifanttande aan polisiebeamptes probeer verkoop het. In 'n onverwante voorval is 'n 48-jarige Angolese burger dieselfde namiddag by Kahenge in hegtenis geneem vir die onwettige besit van twee ietermagôvelle ter waarde van 'n geskatte N$100 000.

According to the police's weekend crime report issued today, a 71-year-old man was arrested at a restaurant in the Swakopmund smallholdings on Thursday morning after he allegedly tried to sell four elephant tusks to police officers. In an unrelated incident, a 48-year-old Angolan citizen was arrested at Kahenge the same afternoon for the illegal possession of two food pangolin skins worth an estimated N $ 100,000.
