Late Konga’s tribesmen issue 14-day notice

A 14-day notice has been issued to the Police Commissioner, the Police Minister and the Prime Minister to fast track the investigation into the killing of the former CEO of Border Development Authority.

The late Fred Aura Konga’s immediate relatives and tribesmen issued the notice yesterday at Rolgump Village in the Anglimp South Waghi Electorate of Jiwaka Province.

The community leaders said Late Konga was killed in cold blood in Port Moresby on August 23rd however, for a month, they did not receive any favourable response from the police commissioner, who promised to investigate the killing.  

The leaders, in their verbal notice, are now calling on the concerned authorities to fast track the investigation within 14 days.

If no favourable response is received within the 14 days then a written petition will be formally presented before further action is taken against the State.

Meantime, the body of the Late Konga has not been laid to rest yet. It will be held until responsible authorities give a response.
