The Landless People’s Movement (LPM) leader Bernadus Swartbooi has lodged a complaint with the International Criminal Court (ICC) demanding a fast-tracked investigation against President Hage Geingob for targeting the party as well as for the “heinous war crimes” of Lubango.
Swartbooi informed the ICC that LPM was unable to access fair trials in the Namibian courts as justice in Namibia is reserved for Swapo, who with its functionaries allegedly controls the court system in the country.
According to Swartbooi it is important that the ICC deal with Geingob’s investigation swiftly so that “further damage to the constitutional values, the sanctity of peace and development of society can be facilitated without delay or hindrance”.
