POLICE DAWN RAID NETS THREE GUNS, AMMO AND KNIVES.

Six male suspects were arrested in a dawn raid and  police recovered a factory made shot gun, two home-made rifles, some bullets and several knives at Port Moresby's Talai and Gorobe settlements today.

A police team comprising members of Sector Patrol Fox 100 units and Badili Police stormed into several homes at Talai and Gorobe settlements today, nabbing the suspects and confiscating the weapons.

The raid was conducted early today after some settlers from Hela Province reported a case of shooting, in which some suspects allegedly fired gunshots into a residential premises yesterday but no one was hurt or killed. 

NCD Metropolitan Superintendent Silva Sika said, police responded swiftly by conducting the raid   at around 4am today, and the six suspects from Hela province were arrested and detained in the cells at the Badili Police Station. 

The Metsup said the suspects will be charged by CID and the Badili Police Station Commander Inspector Obert Jerry and his team will re-visit the settlements today to conduct awareness on peace and good order. 

The Met-Supt also warned the community affected by this incident to refrain from taking the law into their own hands and allow police to investigate this matter. 

He said police will maintain regular patrols in Talai and Gorobe settlements from today onwards until the conflict between the two factions is fully resolved.
