Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span>The murder case against siblings Azaan Madisia and Junior Mulundu, who are accused of murdering the young Walvis Bay resident, Shannon Wasserfall, was transferred to the High Court. The duo, who has been in custody since their arrest in 2020, were slapped with robbery with aggravating circumstances as per the prosecutor general\u2019s decision during their last court appearance in the Walvis Bay Magistrate\u2019s Court. New Era understands the robbery charges were added because Wasserfall\u2019s cellular phone has to date not been recovered.<\/p>\n

During their last court appearance yesterday, the two suspects were told the prosecutor general\u2019s decision is ready. Reading their charges, public prosecutor Maggy Shiyagaya said the suspects face murder, fraud, alternative theft, as well as defeating the course of justice charges.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou will no longer appear in the Walvis Bay Magistrate\u2019s Court, as your case has been transferred to Windhoek. Your pre-trial hearing is scheduled for 23 June,\u201d she explained before the two suspects were whisked away to the police holding cells. The siblings, who pleaded not guilty last year, are accused of murdering Wasserfall \u2013 a close friend of Madisia \u2013 in April 2020.<\/p>\n

Madisia went on and reported Wasserfall missing and allegedly also took part in some of the searches conducted to find her. However, a text message sent to Wasserfall\u2019s father last year led the police and investigators to the victim\u2019s shallow grave close to the Dunes Mall.<\/p>\n

The message was later traced back to Madisia, who was arrested in November 2020. Mulundu handed himself over several months later to the police at the Narraville police station for his part in the crime and was arrested. He allegedly assisted his sister to dispose of Wasserfall\u2019s body.<\/p>\n
