Prime Minister Peter O'Neill was today angered
at reports of the murder of an Australian tourist in Mt Hagen on Monday
morning.
Media reports said the Australian, who was
identified, was shot dead at a friend’s home while his girl friend was pack
raped.
“I condemn the killing of this tourist and
the attack on his girlfriend. It is a cowardly act of animals. This kind of
behaviour totally undermines our efforts to make our country a safe destination
for investment and tourists,” the Prime Minister said.
He demanded Police Commissioner Tom Kulunga
to do all that is necessary to bring those responsible to justice.
“Our community cannot be safe until we bring
perpetrators of such heinous crimes to face the full force of the law.
“We cannot allow the entire nation to
suffer because of the behaviour of one or two sick people,” Mr O’Neill said.
