CS officers face disciplinary charges

CS Commissioner Michael Waipo says the disciplinary board has  completed all their reports and recommendations as of last week.

Waipo informed PNG Loop that the board has reviewed the cases of the officers implicated in the escape of 32 prisoners who are still at large.

The incident saw close to 20 men raid the prison at around 3am that Wednesday morning which resulted in the break out of the 32 prisoners.

Investigations have revealed that some officials were also involved in this break out which has been plagued with allegations of nepotism and bribery.
