The refugee arrived via Honiara at around 12:10pm today on an Air Niugini flight from Fiji. Media personnel are still waiting for the release of the refugee to question him since midday.
It's hours now and still the authorities are yet to release him. It is understood that immigration officers are interrogating him. The refugee, Loghman Sawari, 21 from Iran fled to Fiji using a PNG passport and had misleading information on his Immigration Arrival Card.
