BREAKING NEWS|| Bernhard Esau, the former Minister of Fisheries and Marine Resources, has won a High Court case allowing him to access some of his assets previously under a restraint order.
The decision, handed down today, permits Esau to use these assets to cover his legal fees in the ongoing Fishrot case.
The assets had been restrained as part of the broader investigation into alleged corruption and bribery involving millions of dollars.
The Fishrot scandal, involving several prominent figures, is one of the largest corruption cases in Namibia's history, with significant ramifications for governance and natural resource management in the country.
