THE Namcor Board Member, Jennifer Comalie, who was arrested yesterday after she was caught with a substantial amount of drugs, has been released on bail of N$7000.
Comalie, who was represented by Trevor Brokerhoff, looked distraught and could be seen limping during her first appearance.
Comalie is charged with three counts of dealing in drugs, valued at approximately N$57 000.
This is after the embattled board member was arrested by members of the Namibian Police midday yesterday, 27 March 2023, near Namcor in an intelligence-led operation.
The Public Prosecutor, Seredine Jacobs, said that the State, at this point, does not object to bail. However, she requested that the matter be postponed to 1 August 2023 for police investigations to be concluded.
The Presiding Magistrate over the matter, Jozanne Klazen, ruled that the matter be postponed to 31 July 2023, and that the accused be granted bail of N$7000.
