Rundu — A woman died yesterday from injuries she sustained in a savage beating at the hands of her boyfriend, who had just been released from police custody a week earlier for assaulting her.
The incident took place at Likwaterera, 30 kilometres south of Rundu. "This man was just released last week after he was arrested for assaulting the same woman, and it's like he came back to kill her," said one mystified villager at the scene. According to villagers the man and the woman had a very heated and physical argument on Wednesday night, which culminated in the man beating the woman. Although the woman's cries for help were heard by many in the area, no one dared to help and stop the fight as everyone was afraid.
