Activists compile complaints against police

Anjo tells PNG Loop that he has met with all the other NGO partners to go over statements they have obtained so far.

He says that they also have photographic and video evidence of some of the main assaults. Anjo is calling on other supporters to come forward with their complaints.

He is adamant they will still pursue legal action against police for their interference on Monday.

Anjo says that their legal team has been in talks with them as well to seek action against the Police Commissioner Gari Baki and the NCD Metropolitan police commander Ben Turi.

Court order 122 of 2014 stated that police are restrained from infringing the rights of Anjo under sections 32, 42, 47 and 52 of the Constitution, he told reporters.

The order declares, he says, that he has the right to freedom of expression, assembly and association of freedom of movement. The order also stated that police were restricted from infringing the rights of Anjo to take part in any processions, public meetings or any such activity that are lawfully organised by the plaintiff.
