Candidate’s Family Terrorised

A police report was filed yesterday at the Morobe Provincial Police headquarters in Lae, stating that a group of men, armed with bush knives and slingshots, started terrorising the family members and supporters of candidate, Wagao Openg, on Sunday, 19th June.

On Sunday afternoon, a group of men waited at the Timbe wara for Openg’s supporters, who had gone to Songin for the opening of his campaign posters.

The armed gang allegedly attacked a boy, a man and two women during that time and shredded a poster.
