Crime Fighters Lae

Wagambie promises to fight crime in Lae

Members of the Lae metropolitan command and colleagues from the Australian Federal Police put on a parade during the handover takeover ceremony between former Metropolitan superintendent Iven Lakatani and welcomed Wagambie Jr.

"I will continue on from where the former Met Supt has left. But policing priorities will be focused on motor vehicle thefts, armed robberies, and school fights," he said.

"Lae is a very challenging command because of increasing business activities as well as increased settlements and it is connected by road and sea to many other provinces."
