This forum seeks to deliver social and economic justice in Namibia in what, by design, currently is a politically fragmenting society confronting the Challenge of State Capture.<\/p>\n<p>As a witness and victim of the forces that committed these crimes I state that the\u00a0<strong> Declaration and Demand<\/strong> <strong>25th January<\/strong> <strong>2014<\/strong> to the United Nations and <b>International Criminal Court, file number OTP-CR-772\/09<\/b> to investigate the crimes of 1989, submitted at Windhoek in January 2014, resulted in the removal of UN Resident Coordinator MUSINGA T.

The officials replacing them found all the information on the computers at the Windhoek office removed when they arrived, and therefore no evidence of the Declaration and Demand to investigate\u00a0 the crimes of 1989 committed during the Namibian transition to independence as supervised by the UN was to be\u00a0 found.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <strong>Declaration and Demand 2014 <\/strong>to investigate the unsolved crimes committed against humanity and the United Nations in Namibia during its transition to independence from 1989 to 1990 contains the crimes as listed below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1)\u00a0\u00a0 The bombing of the UN office in Outjo, Namibia.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>2)\u00a0\u00a0 The capture and escape of the perpetrators of the bombing.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>3)\u00a0\u00a0 The murder of Advocate Anton Lubowski.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>4)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The secret murder of hundreds of SWAPO captives in 1988\/9<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the first instance, the appeal in the<strong> Declaration and Demand<\/strong> to the UN petitioned it to determine the existence and integrity of the police dockets of these crimes.

It also declared the exploitation of Namibia\u2019s natural resources by foreign multi-national corporations to be illegal. ( https:\/\/undocs.org\/pdf?symbol=en\/A\/RES\/32\/15 ) This led to a predictable decline in \u201cWhite\u201d political control in Namibia and South Africa, and fear of a future <strong>\u201cunpredictable\u201d<\/strong> Black government reared its head.<br \/>\nUpon these rulings, the\u00a0Nationalist Party\u00a0did an about-turn on its threat to nationalize KFB\u2019s mining assets in the mid-1960s. The escalation of \u00a0nationalization of multi-national corporations\u2019\u00a0industrial assets and natural resource exploitation rights by governments\u2019, at that time posed the biggest threat to the KFB and its associates\u00a0in the Western World.<\/p>\n<p>The SAAG then established an\u00a0interim government in Namibia\u00a0in 1980, contrary to international law, and\u00a0simultaneously it set up a secret parallel government management structure\u00a0(namely\u00a0STRATCOM,\u00a0a \u201cthird force\u201d)\u00a0through which it effected and managed the greater economic colonization\/privatisation of Namibian assets.<br \/>\nThe new, interim Namibian government was structured during the 1980s to accommodate easy access to manipulate government companies that owned its strategic industrial assets. The sole purpose of arranging these assets into independent legal entities facilitated easy access to them by KFB after the country achieves independence from apartheid rule.<\/p>\n<p>Namibia obtained independence in 1989\/90, supervised by the UN in terms of UN Security Council Resolution 435, 1978.
