Woman Arrested with Crystal Methamphetamine at Ariamsvlei Border

A 60-year-old Namibian woman was arrested on Monday evening at the Ariamsvlei Border Post for possessing suspected crystal methamphetamine valued at approximately N$13 million. Border officials grew suspicious as she entered Namibia from South Africa, leading to the discovery. In a separate incident, a 9-year-old boy, Kathimune Mushongo, tragically drowned in a pond at Tsintsabis in the Oshikoto region on Saturday while swimming with other children. Deputy Commissioner Titus Ekandjo confirmed the boy’s identity and the circumstances surrounding the drowning.
