North Bougainville Police Appeal

The Acting Commander for North Bougainville Police, Chief Sergeant JOHN POPUI is appealing to the people of Bougainville not to take the law into their own hands but report to Police for assistance.
The Commander made these appeal after Police attended two cases on Buka island this week.
Commander POPUI said Police are working on a case of a man who was stabbed at MALIS village and died on the way to the Buka Hospital.
The deceased was from HAHALIS village and when his relative retaliated they burned three houses and destroyed food gardens at MALIS village.
Commander POPUI said the case was now in Police hands and wants the people to remain calm and let Police work on the case.
Chief Sergeant Popui also reported one incident in which a man committed suicide after arguing with his wife in Haku.
He has also appealed to the people not to take their own lives when they have arguments with their families.
Commander POPUI said that the people must resolve their problems with families because problems no matter how difficult they are can be solved. New Dawn FM
