The National Capital District (NCD) Metropolitan Superintendent, Silva Sika, has urged the alleged murderer of the young woman last weekend to surrender peacefully. Following the death of the young woman in the nation’s Capital that occurred on the 8th of February 2025, Met Supt Sika, has issued a warning to the suspect to give up and let the law take its course. Met Supt Sika told PNG HAUSBUNG that the suspect was identified as a member of the Papua New Guinea Defence Force who remains at large. The father of the deceased is also a long serving public servant member with the PNG Correctional Service Officer. According to Met Supt Sika, the intimate partner and alleged murderer is nowhere to be found in Port Moresby which is now prompting law enforcement agencies to intensify efforts in locating and apprehending him. Met Supt Sika has appealed directly to the suspect, urging him to voluntarily surrender to the homicide unit at Boroko Police Station. He emphasized that while fugitives are actively pursued, it is in the suspect’s best interest to cooperate with authorities rather than evade capture. In addition, police are now working closely with military police and other law enforcement agencies to track the suspect’s whereabouts. Preliminary investigations suggest that the victim was murdered by her partner, though a full briefing is still pending. The case has drawn significant public concern, highlighting the broader issue of domestic violence and violent crime in the city. Meanwhile, Met Supt Sika reaffirmed the police force’s commitment to ensuring justice for the victim and her family. He also called upon the public to assist in reporting any information that may lead to the suspect’s arrest. Moreover, this case underscores the ongoing GBV challenges in crime prevention and the importance of collaborative efforts in maintaining law and order within the NCD.
