Die 49-jarige Leon Schiffer het Maandag in die landdroshof op Maltahöhe verskyn. Hy word van stropery in die Namib-Naukluft Nasionale Park (in die Sesriem-distrik) aangekla. Luidens verlede naweek se polisieverslag is Schiffer op 5 Januarie omstreeks 10:00 saam met nog 'n verdagte (32) in hegtenis geneem - volgens inligting van die landdroskantoor in Maltahöhe was dit 'n sekere "Gariseb". Die twee het glo nege gemsbokke gestroop. Hulle was egter na bewering deel van 'n groep van vier verdagtes wat glo onwettig die nasionale park in 'n Nissan NP300-huurmotor vanaf die C19-hoofpad, sowat 30 kilometer vanaf Sesriem, binnegekom het. Die C19 is die grondpad wat van Solitaire na Hammerstein en Zarispas terug na Maltahöhe lei. Die verdagtes het glo die wild met die voertuig gejag en geskiet, waarna die vleis op 'n vragmotor gelaai is. Twee verdagtes het op vlug geslaan. 49-year-old Leon Schiffer appeared in the Maltahöhe Magistrate's Court on Monday. He is charged with poaching in the Namib-Naukluft National Park (in the Sesriem district). According to last weekend's police report, Schiffer was arrested on January 5 at around 10am along with another suspect, 32 – according to information from the magistrate's office in Maltahöhe, it was a certain "Gariseb". The two reportedly stripped nine roe deer. However, they were allegedly part of a group of four suspects who allegedly illegally entered the national park in a Nissan NP300 rental car off the C19 main road, about 30 kilometres from Sesriem. The C19 is the dirt road leading from Solitaire to Hammerstein and Zaris Pass back to Maltahöhe. The suspects reportedly hunted and shot the game with the vehicle, after which the meat was loaded onto a truck. Two suspects fled.
