He made this comment after hearing of the passing of the judge last Friday.
The country’s first female judge passed away in Australia while seeking medical treatment.
“So sad to hear this news (because) the late Judge and her family had contributed immensely to our country. In law, in academia, in sports, especially football and in a lot of community activities,” Parkop said.
“She was an outstanding lawyer, a resolute and very fair judge and also a great footballer representing PNG in women’s soccer.”
