SUSPENDED Angoram MP Arthur Somare has claimed that the
Prime Minister Peter O’Neill is a "liar" and is referring him to the Ombudsman
Commission.
He is also referring Lawyer Philip Ame to the Law Society
for perpetuating a "lie" in court.
Somare was bemused by the allegations that he secretly met
with Chief Justice Sir Salamo Injia at the Ela Beach Hotel on November 4.
“The action of Peter O’Neill is an action of a desperate man
who is handing by the skin of his tooth to be in power.”
Somare said it waas unbecoming of a leader lying in the face
of the Supreme Court.
“Politics you can play with me but do not tarnish the name
of the Chief Justice," he said.
"He is too big to drag his name down.
“This is total lie as I do not drink, play pokies or stay up
late at hotels and night clubs.
“I believe in the rule of law and I believe the court will
make a decision.
Somare said the closest meeting with the Chief Justice was
at the Court house in the public gallery.
“The three who made the allegations are liars and Peter
O’Neill is a liar.”
The National visited the Ela Beach Hotel to check on the
operating hours to find that the hotel's pokies parlour closes at 10 o’clock and it does
not serve late diners.
