Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 68239, member: 636"] A 42-year-old police officer is in critical condition at Rundu State Hospital after being stabbed in the back of the neck by a 27-year-old male inmate on Thursday afternoon. The incident occurred around 16:00 at the Rundu Police Station, as confirmed by deputy commissioner Bonifatius Kanyetu, the police crime investigation coordinator for the Kavango East region. Reports indicate that Officer Sondaha Evalistus was on duty near the main door of the cell corridor, checking the names of returning inmates, when the suspect approached him from behind and stabbed him with a kitchen knife. After the attack, the inmate reportedly fled and hid behind a door leading to the cells. Police later recovered the knife used in the assault. Kanyetu stated that the suspect has not yet been charged, as investigations are still ongoing. The officer, despite sustaining a deep wound, is in stable condition. [/QUOTE]
