Rundu – A 17-year-old boy lost his life after being stabbed in broad daylight on Friday in Rundu’s industrial area. The incident took place on John Mutorwa Road, just hours after the road was officially inaugurated.

Deputy Commissioner Bonifatius Kanyetu, the Kavango East crime investigations coordinator, confirmed the tragic event, stating that the teenager was attacked while walking along the street.

Authorities have identified the deceased as Paulus Kahili, a Grade 8 learner at a local school.
