Loop PNG confirmed his release just before 4pm today.
Owner and Managing Director of Sogeri Lodge Warran Bartlett finalised arrangements for his release this afternoon after the National Court granted him bail on Tuesday (yesterday).
He was released on K1000 bail.
Listed as one of the juvernile's guarantors, Bartlett this afternoon produced receipts of the K1000 bail at the Waigani National Court Crimes Registry counter.
A warrant for his release was done up before the Correctional Service releases the minor from custody at Bomana.
Bartlett and another guarantor will ensure the 17 year old abides to his bail conditions which includes attending his scheduled court mention dates at the Juvernile court in Port Moresby.
