One of the main suspects who was involved in the torture of an elderly man, destruction of properties and livestock as well as the burning down of 13 houses back in year 2023 in Kombumogo village in Kerowagi District was re-arrested on Tuesday. The violence, which erupted following the death of a man believed to be linked to sorcery-accusation related violence, led to widespread destruction. Eight suspects were arrested and charged with wilful murder and arson in relation to the incident. PNG Tribal Foundation President, GT Bustin said the case is one of the many ongoing sorcery accusation-related violence (SARV) cases the Foundation has been supporting. “This is about ensuring justice is served to those who continue to accuse innocent people and destroy lives and property.” The suspect, who had already been arrested and charged, failed to appear in court for several months until a bench warrant was issued by the National Court last week, leading to his re-arrest by police on Tuesday. He is currently in police custody and is expected to appear in court soon. “Tribal Foundation had to fund the re-arrest of several perpetrators who have been let out on bail, including some who were involved in murder on various incidents that should not have been let out on bail in different cases.” According to the Foundation’s records, three of the suspects are remanded in Barawagi Prison, while five are out on bail and attending court hearings.
