The Executive Director in the Ministry of Justice, Audrin Mathe, has said the ministry will issue a response on Monday following questions raised about the tariffs of the Legal Aid programme and alleged disparities in remuneration between defence lawyers and prosecutors in the Fishrot corruption trial.

Defence lawyers made their closing arguments in the ongoing NAMCOR bail proceedings before Magistrate Linus Samunzala at the Windhoek Magistrate's Court.

The lawyers have questioned the basis of their clients' arrests and the quality of evidence presented by the Anti-Corruption Commission.
