Noble and Azhar drug case sentencing scheduled

OnFriday,thepartiesappearedintheHighCourt in Windhoek for final arguments before sentencing,duringwhichNobleandAzhar'slegal representative presented arguments to mitigate thesentence.

NobleandAzhar,whoin2018attemptedtosmuggle 412 kg of cocaine worth an estimated N$206 million into the country with a cargo container from Brazil, were found guilty on 19 August on one count of dealing in cocaine andone count of money laundering but were acquitted on that charge as the judge found it constituted a duplication.

State advocate Timo Itula on Friday asked the High Court to sentence drug dealers to the maximum allowed under the Drugs Act, namely 15 years direct imprisonment and that the court shouldnotbedeterredfromhandingdownasentence which is deterrent, preventative, reformativeandretributory

Thesocietymustbeprotectedfrompeoplesuchas the accused therefore the court must send out a clear message that drug smuggling will not be tolerated.Themerevolumeofthedrugsinvolved –morethan400kg–wouldhavehadadevastating effectifitwasletlooseonsociety,Itulastressed.

AccordingtoItula,theconvictsoptednottotestifyinmitigation,therebynottakingthecourtinto theirconfidenceandanyattemptfromthedefence counseltoprofferremorsefromthebarshouldbe disregarded. He further said that it is unknown if anykindofpunishmentwillrehabilitatetheaccused persons, but what is certain though, is that if they become rehabilitated in prison, they might qualifyforareductioninsentence.

Itula said that the drugs were concealed in the same type of boxes the papers were in and that it

"Iftheydonotreceiveafine,wesuggestthatprisonsentencesshouldbesuspendedforatleastfive years on the condition that they do not commit similarcrimesagain,"hefurtherargued.

Itula referred to another case where a person was caughtwith28kgofmarijuanaandwassentenced to10years,ofwhichfouryearsweresuspended.

"Thiscasedealswithasignificantlylargeramount of drugs, as well as a different type of drug and therefore requires a similar or harsher sentence," arguedItula.

“The court should impose a fine of N$20 000 on eachaccusedwithanoptionoftwoyearsimprisonment on failure to pay the fine plus an additional whollysuspendedfiveyearsimprisonmentterm."

He further argued that the judicial system has moved away from the “backwards looking retribution theory of sentencing which is associated with revenge as a justification for punishment, and which is deeply ingrained in human experience.

Gardening project for DRC Clinic patients

Avegetablegardenthatwillcaterforpregnantwomen,patientswithTuberculosis, HIV/AIDSanddayvisitorswashandedovertotheDRCClinicintheDemocratic Resettlement Community (DRC) by the Municipality of Swakopmund this week Wednesday.

In 2021, through her annual strategic plan at the Swakopmund Municipality, the recentlyelectedConstituency Councillor Louisa Kativa proposed the implemen tation of an urban agricultural project at the DRC clinic

Kativa said, “this came after I realised the dire need of my community of the DRC for basic fooditems.Afterapproval from the management committee, we wrote letters to the Ministry of Health and Social Services for the approval of a backyard

gardenattheclinic.”As a former health worker, Kativa said she could not help but notice how patients visited the clinic and hospital with a hungry tummy and that is when she decided to find a permanent solution to the problem instead of only the

temporary solution of foodparcelhandouts.

Swakopmund's urban agriculture project aims to promote urban agriculture by encouraging residents to produce their own food and stimulatefoodsecurityand economic growth. Kativa said, ”thus, in line with this vision, the office of the mayor initiatedprovidingfoodfor the less privileged patients at the DRC clinic. Our focus group is the pregnant women be cause when you are expecting, you need nutrients for the baby that is growing, and unfor tunately, those living in DRC do not have the necessarymeanstohave nutritiousmeals.”

According to Kativa, this project commenced in July 2022. the soil preparationwasdoneby thevolunteersandbythe urban agriculture pro-

yard space to start a backyardgarden.

According to Kapande Kaputene,theladywho willbetakingcareofthe garden together with Albertina Cleopas, she started volunteering at the garden in 2014 Kaputene said, “this is not the first time the municipality is setting upthisgarden,thisisthe second one.
