OSHAKATI – The Namibian Police in the Oshana region have recovered a total of 57 vehicles stolen both in Angola and Namibia since 2022.

This was revealed by Oshana’s crime investigations coordinator, Fredrik Ndjadila, in an interview with Nampa on Thursday.

He indicated that the highest number of stolen vehicles was recorded in 2023 with 31 vehicles, 18 in 2022 and eight vehicles this
year.

“We have managed to recover a total of 16 vehicles within Namibia and five in Angola, which were all repatriated back to Namibia,” Ndjadila said.

He added that there are still no reports of stolen vehicles from Angola to Namibia, noting that the total number of all recovered vehicles both in Angola and in Namibia was 21.

Meanwhile, the police are yet to recover a total of 36 vehicles that were stolen during the period under review. Ndjadila stated that the police are hard at work to recover the remaining vehicles, and will leave no stone unturned.
