BRYAN KRAMER BREAKS DOWN THE HISTORY BEHIND THE DECISION TO TERMINATE TWO SENIOR OFFICERS INVOLVED IN THE ARREST OF PRIME MINISTER O'NIELL by BRYAN KRAMER   While many were jubilant and surprised by the news of National Court's ruling to stay (stop) Commissioner of Police Gary Baki's decision to terminate Assistant Commissioner of Police Thomas Eluh and Deputy Director of National Fraud & Anti-Corruption Directorate Timothy Gitua, for me the ruling was expected. The Judiciary operates under strict guidelines, rules, procedures and principles all based on several hundred years of precedent (previous court rulings). The judiciary is the branch of government which administers justice according to law. The two other branches are Parliament and the National Executive Council (NEC) made up of Government Ministers and chaired by Prime Minister , also referred to as the Executive Government or Cabinet. The role of Parliament is to make the laws, while N

by  BRYAN KRAMER   Director of National Fraud & Anti-corruption Directorate Mathew Damaru was formally charged by Police under Section 197 of Criminal Code for allegedly making a false declaration and statement. The provision is in the following terms; "(1) A person who, on any occasion on which he is permitted or required by law to make a statement or declaration before a person authorized by law to permit it to be made before him, makes a statement or declaration before that person that is to his knowledge false in a material particular is guilty of a misdemeanour." "Penalty: Imprisonment for a term not exceeding three years." "(2) A person cannot be convicted of an offence against Subsection (1) on the uncorroborated testimony of one witness." The charges relate to Contempt of Court proceedings filed against the Commissioner of Police Gary Baki by Damaru and his Deputy Director Timothy Gitua. Both Damaru and Gitua filed the pro

 by YAKAN LEPAKAILI   GOD OF ALL CREATION RULES AND DAY OF JUSTICE AGAINST EVIL, WICKEDNESS AND CORRUPTION IS EMINENT. Judge stays the lawyers’ travel ban and reinstatement of sacked top fraud squad cops is a victory for the people of Papua New Guinea. Crafty politicians and bureaucrats devise schemes giving the ruthless and totalitarian regime the competitive advantage over rival political opponents. When interrogated by the media, put on the brave face and front media with purported explanation stating letter does not link to PM or to say, sacking not politically motivated. Events evolved raises lot of eye brows revolving around Prime Minister’s authorisation of K71.8 million payments of controversial legal bills to Paul Paraka Lawyers executed by Lieutenant James Marape. Apparently, actions of Manasupe Zurenouc, Gari Baki and Mataio Rabura have correlational causation and aren’t isolated events. Arrogant Zurenouc, Baki and Rabura aren’t speaking with clear conscience for th

by NRI INSIDER There was always something a little strange about the collapsing kin. First we were told by Peter O'Neill and his corrupt cronies Marape and Pruaitch that the kina wasn't going down or that the slide was only temporary. But as we saw days of kina sliding turned into weeks and weeks turned into months, that lie no longer worked. Today we have a clear graphical record of a slide in the kina that began nearly from the moment that Peter O'Neill was re-elected and took office again and has continued up to now. The Masters of Deception now admit this is the case but say that they've got everything under control. Most certainly not. If you look at the rate at which the kina has been declining against the US dollar in recent weeks you can see that the slide started becoming steeper than it was before. The Masters of Deception can lie all they want but the bare facts don't lie. An outright collapse of the kina to God knows what low levels is being pre

by MARK PARAKISAN S ensitive questions to break out the truth: WHY WAS PETER O'NEILL SO DESPERATE TO SECURE THE UBS LOAN? THE BEANS ARE SPILLING OUT. The very sad details about the UBS loan has been revealed. Knowing all this, one starts wondering why from all accounts, Peter O'Neill expressed more than happiness when the deal with through and the Oil Search shares were bought. Witne sses say he was overjoyed. Overjoyed? Anyone who knows Peter O'Neill knows that he is a man of few outward emotions. Yet, the UBS deal obviously meant something big to him. Very very big. There are 2 very obvious possibilities: Peter O'Neill was either receiving the proceeds of corrupt commissions, or he was profiting greatly off selling shares of Oil Search as the UBS loan co-occurred with the peak Oil Search price. "Corrupt commissions" are when someone with insider knowledge sets up a crony (or a relative) to be in charge of facilitating

by MICHAEL J. PASSINGAN The lies continue to adulterate the Bureaucracy, even the Chief Secretary who is understood to be physically weak to contain the pressure of convincing his Lutheran mind. The Chief Secretary was reported by the media yesterday that he defended his action to refer Chief Magistrate Nerrie Eliakim to the Attorney General by saying what he did was procedural and administrative. He claimed that it is his job to refer complaints about public office holders to their appointment authorities. He sounded innocent and bona-fide by saying "I know the timing is not good and everyone thinks it is in relation to the PM'S case but it is not," It makes the thinking lot of us sick to the core when the corrupt pollies and their stooged servants continue to want us believe to their idiocrasy and lameness. LET’S LOOK AT THE CHIEF SECRETARY’S RESPONSE CLOSELY. The Chief Secretary to Government is the Departmental Head of the Department of Prime Minister a
