The Namibian Police's Inspector General said the Defence Force will continue to participate in Operation Kalahari Desert, despite the public outcry.

The Inspector General of the Namibian Police is calling for calm following information circulating on social media that a man has been arrested at Grootfontein in connection with the murder of nine-year-old Cheryl Ujaha.

Inspector General of the Namibian Police, Lieutenant General Sebastian Ndeitunga says a report in a UK-based newspaper, describing Namibia as a dangerous and violent country, reflects the opposite of the truth.

Threats by former South-West Africa Territorial Force, SWATF/Koevoet members to spill blood if their demands are not met are tantamount to treason, Inspector-General of the Namibian Police Force, Lieutenant-General Sebastian Ndeitunga says.

The Inspector General of the Namibian Police says bad behavior will no longer be tolerated in the force as it compromises the safety of citizens.
