A family in Tsumeb, mourning the loss of a murder victim, has taken to the streets to urge the court to deny bail to the alleged attacker.

Karibib residents have opposed the granting of bail to all murder suspects in the Erongo Region.

A group of residents marched to the Karibib Magistrate's court to hand over a petition.

They stressed that Karibib is a fast-developing town and has become a target for criminals.
