The police have dismissed allegations circulating on social media that it attempted to cover up a police shooting incident at Okondjatu Settlement, Okakarara, in the Otjozondjupa region earlier this month.

Protesters marched to Agostinho Neto Square on Saturday to demand justice for the killing of five men who died at the hands of police officers in Okahandja in April last year.

The protest was spearheaded by activist and Namibia Economic Freedom Fighters (NEFF) member Michael Amushelelo.
