If you look at the original comment by Peter, you will see that that absolute
paths are used. This works:

$ okular "file://<absolute_path_to_pdf>#named_destination"

When using relative paths, omit the //. This does not work
"file://<relative_path_to_pdf>" while this does "file:<relative_path_to_pdf>"

The problem is rather that '#' gets replaced with '%23'. i.e. the following
does not work:

$ okular "file://<absolute_path_to_pdf>%23named_destination"
