Police spokesperson Chief Inspector Hieronymus Goraseb told Nampa on Wednesday that the theft was detected on Monday this week.

A police investigation is currently underway.

In an unrelated incident, Rosh Pinah resident Adam Jerome Kahambunda died after being stabbed with a broken bottle in the neck.

The stabbing took place in the early hours on Monday this week at about 02h30 at the mine settlement.

A 22-year-old man has been arrested and he is now helping the Police with their investigation.

The Keetmanshoop Police have opened a docket of inquest after Isaak Afrikaner died on the scene when a Nissan pick-up he was travelling in left the road and overturned.

The accident took place some 120 kilometres from Keetmanshoop on the Keetmanshoop/Grunau main road.

It is reported that the 45-year-old deceased was alone in the vehicle at the time of the accident.
