The six officers returned to court with their lawyers today and Magistrate Cosmas Bidar allowed an adjournment to next week Thursday to hear submissions in response to the police prosecution investigation files.

Defense’s submissions on the investigation files took a while to be done because documents in the file were bulky.

Magistrate Bidar told the court today that the case has been outstanding for a while and he wants to finalize the matter before the festive season.

Police Prosecutions served copies of the investigation files or hand-up briefs to Samuel Turi, Arnold Zilong, Tuom Tutuk, Ronald Nelson, Carl Inoumba and Jeremiah Buigen when they all returned to court on Wednesday with their lawyer, Frederick Lunge, at the Waigani Committal Court.

Their lawyer sought an adjournment to peruse those files and prepare submissions. This was allowed by the court as the files were bulky. They will return to court on July 28.
