Execution style killing

Investigations ongoing for Konga case

NCD Metropolitan Superintendent, Ben Turi told Loop PNG that the Criminal Investigation Division is still working on it, and more information is still needed.

Turi said this is not an easy case, adding that obviously, people are hiding their tracks.

He said police are slowly recovering information and should be able to produce a full investigative report on Mr Konga’s shooting in the weeks ahead.

Mr. Konga’s shooting was confirmed by police as an execution style shooting.

​Konga’s death shocking

At his funeral on Thursday (Sept 7) at Romunga Village, Anglimp, Jiwaka Province, eldest son, Wellington, said his father’s life was stolen from the family.

“He didn’t die a slow, peaceful death,” said Wellington.

“He was taken in the middle of the road, on a freeway, a public highway.

“His life was robbed.”

The CEO of the Independent Consumer & Competition Commission (ICCC), Paulus Ain, also shared similar sentiments.

“He wasn’t even sick and we have no tribal enemies,” said Ain.

“We had no issues with anyone.”
