The PNG HIGHER Education Research Science and Technology Department secretary Fr Jan Czuba will continue to be out on bail after an application by the police prosecution to revoke it was dismissed by a court on Friday. Police prosecutor Sr Constable Peter Samghy had claimed in the application that Fr Czuba had interfered with State witness Sebastian Bosco but Magistrate Tracy Ganaii found no grounds to sustain the allegations. The court heard that Fr Czuba was not provided with the list of potential state witness.
Samghy argued that it was not necessary to provide the list to (Fr Czuba) because he should know his employees and who were the potential witnesses. “Fr Czuba would have known that Bosco was the main witness since he was the one that filed the complaint against him,” he said. But Ganaii said: “In my view, this is an irresponsible submission by the prosecution. I say this because the police have a constitutional duty to disclose to any defendant in a sufficient and timely manner their case against the defendant.” The Education News / The National Next : Students, Teachers With Covid-19 Symptoms To Be Tested As Schools Set To Resume On Monday Comments are closed.
