Police prosecution

No District Court sitting on NCD polling day

All matters that are supposed to return to court tomorrow will either be adjourned to Wednesday or a later date, which will be advised at the respective District Court registries.  

Police Prosecutors who are responsible for prosecuting cases in the district courts will be engaged in the election operations across the city, as residents go to the polls to cast their votes.

Loop PNG confirmed with the Police Prosecution office at Boroko today.  

NICTA Act prosecution need to be clear

Whilst there has been an increasing number of cases listed before the Waigani Committal Court on the improper use of ICT services, who is responsible for the prosecution of those cases is yet to be finalised.

This will have to be finalised between the office of the Public Prosecutor, the Police Prosecution office and the National Information & Communications Technology Authority.

The NICTA act includes the abuse of ICT services to insult or cause annoyance to another person.
