A woman accused of providing a schoolgirl from northern Namibia as a sexual partner for two men in the Okahandja district has denied the charges at the start of her trial in the Windhoek High Court. The Namibian reports that Tuufilwa Jonas faces four counts of rape, one count of attempted rape and three charges of human trafficking. Jonas, who is being represented by Milton Engelbrecht, was arrested in November 2015. She has been in custody since then. State Advocate Felistas Shikerete-Vendura is prosecuting.
