PNG offers Oz aid, no bowstrings attached
Our nearest neighbour, Papua New Guinea, is a country we love to tut-tut about and lecture, especially when its law officers go AWOL in the face of a disorderly public. Now PNG has returned the favour, and you’ve got to love a dependant with a sense of humour.
You see, the Commissioner of the Royal Papua New Guinea Constabulary, Mr Iambakey Maladina, has offered to assist Australia in the hunt for Susan Wright’s killer.
In fact, Commissioner Maladina says he has twenty officers who are ready and willing to travel to Canberra right now, and he reckons his men’s depth of experience would help bring the Wright investigation to a fast and fruitful conclusion.
Long known as an organisation that appreciates a joke, the AFP has thanked Commissioner Maladina, but gratefully declined his offer.
