According to police report, this is prior to continuous and severe abuse that had been inflicted by the male suspect, who is a close relative of the woman’s husband.
The 39-year-old man (name withheld) from Oro and Morobe was apprehended around 9am yesterday at Three-Mile, Morobe, following a phone call from a community leader who reported that the suspect was threatening the woman to move back with him to Nine-Mile.
The mother-of-three, who is also a nursing officer, had fled from Nine-Mile with her children after continuous abuse from the suspect.
