Tensions flared at the Ondangwa Magistrate’s Court on Friday afternoon during a temporary adjournment of a murder suspect's bail hearing. The court paused proceedings for five minutes to allow Abner Mateus, an alleged mastermind, to compose himself. Mateus is currently testifying in the bail application of his co-accused and nephew, Petrus Shikwaya. State prosecutors allege Mateus directed Shikwaya to purchase acid used in an attack that resulted in the death of prosecutor Justine Shiweda.
