The Police Minister Hon. William Gogl Onglo has expressed remorse after several passengers of a PMV were critically injured in NCD today (08th January 2021) following an accident involving a hire vehicle allegedly occupied by a Police officer.

This was expressed today in a statement from the Police Minister’s Office.

The statement said it is claimed the officer was under the influence of alcohol.

Minister Onglo said the Acting NCD/Central Divisional Commander, Assistant Commissioner of Police, are currently searching for the officer allegedly involved.

He said the officer will face the full brunt of the law if they are found to have caused the accident.

“I would like to make it clear that only a few rogue cops are tarnishing the good name and image of the Royal PNG Constabulary.”
