ATTORNEY GENERAL CALLS ON PRISONERS TO SEEK ADVICE IN PAROLE SYSTEM FOR EARLY RELEASE 07 Aug 2013
Attorney General and Minister for Justice Kerenga Kua has called on prisoners throughout PNG to seek assistance from Correctional Officers on the operations of the Parole System. Mr. Kua says the parole system is operating effectively in PNG and is an avenue for prisoners to be released early after completing a third of their jail terms. He said even if those convicted and sentenced to prison or extended prison terms, there is an opportunity for early release through the parole system. However, Mr. Kua says that prisoners must first demonstrate their ability to reform or rehabilitate themselves while serving their jail sentences and become law abiding citizens when they are released on parole or complete their prison terms.
