Frustrated police personnel block off barracks

The main gate to the Gordon's Police Barracks in Port Moresby has been blocked off early as 4am today.

Police personnel and their families residing at the Single Quarters have blocked off the main entrance in frustration over their poor living conditions.

The disgruntled police personnel and their families want a response from the police hierarchy before the blockade is removed.

The 180-room accommodation, which houses over 500 people, has been condemned by the NCDC Health Inspectors.

The officers want the police hierarchy to advise them on steps taken to address the issue.
