what to do if i scammed someone and they want to throw in jail what can i do
The supplied sources do not state what you should do after allegedly scamming someone, whether you will be jailed, or how bail or criminal proceedings work. 12
They do indicate that theft is recognised under the Prevention of Organised Crime Act, and that certain dealings with property obtained as gratification, including concealing it, may constitute an offence under the Anti-Corruption Act. Attempts, conspiracies, and aiding such offences are also addressed. 12
Do not conceal or deal with allegedly obtained property based on the conduct described in section 45, and obtain advice from a Namibian criminal lawyer before making statements. The supplied extracts do not provide further procedural guidance. 2
