Give seven days of notice for awareness in Wewak: PPC

Philips told Loop PNG following the decision by Wewak District Court, which struck out the charges laid against the 18 students and parents for ‘unlawful assembly’.

The University of Papua New Guinea and University of Technology students, including some high school students and parents, were en route to Wewak CBD to conduct their awareness when they were arrested last Monday by local police.

“No more awareness, I have already advised the student leaders,” Philips said.
