Uusiku Bail Hearing Continues in Shiweda Murder Case 

todayNovember 11, 2026

Background

The formal bail application is continuing today in the Ondangwa Magistrate’s Court for 36-year-old Petrus Uusiku, who is accused alongside seven co-defendants in connection with the high-profile murder of Control Prosecutor Justine Shiweda. Uusiku faces serious charges including murder, organized crime, and conspiracy, stemming from an October 2025 attack in which Shiweda was shot and doused with acid before later succumbing to her injuries. Taking the stand, the former Yango driver denied all involvement, testifying that he is a father of three, owns a home in Windhoek, and requested bail to care for his children. However, the State strongly opposed his release, arguing he poses a flight risk and alleging he played a key role in procuring the acid used in the syndicate attack. Proceedings resume this afternoon before Magistrate Donnevan Shuister.
