In response Minister for Tsiamalili Jr said PNG has collaboration with the Australian Police to deal with such crime as this.

 “The perpetrator is not acting along and thus need cooperation from both Australian Police and PNG to investigate and do more arrests.” said Tsiamalili Jr.

Tsiamalili Jr Further added that a transnational desk will be included in the RPNGC department to address transnational crimes.Minister Tsiamalili assured the house that RPNGC is doing its best to protect the country from any transnational crimes.
