NKURENKURU, 20 MAY (NAMPA)- A 56-year-old woman has been admitted at Nankudu Hospital in the Kavango West Region after she allegedly jumped from a moving vehicle and fell onto the B10 road at Nambi Village on Tuesday, sustaining serious injuries.

She remains hospitalised at Nankudu Hospital and is in a serious condition.
Investigations into the matter continue.
