It is alleged that the arrest of Temai is driven by political motives and done by the same police personnel who allegedly prevented Temai from entering office in Kundiawa just recently, after the National Court ordered for his immediate reinstatement.
"Since my suspension, police were funded by a certain politician and I believe the investigation is not neutral and actions by local police and police from Boroka and Mt Hagen indicate that police is not being fair," Temai said.
