EDITORIAL: By the PNG Post-Courier
Ten years ago, a dinghy carrying 5 medical research institute scientists disappeared in Papua New Guinea’s West New Britain waters.
The scientists — 3 men and 2 women — have never been found.
A few weeks ago, the PNG Medical Research Institute finally closed its book on the missing five.
PNG POST-COURIER What remains interesting in this case is an open finding in a coronial inquest several years ago, which did not rule out an act of piracy in its conclusion.
Last Friday, hundreds of angry protesters marched in the town of Buka, raising their voices against piracy and venting their anger against the new Autonomous Region of Bougainville for failing to take action against sea pirates.
They, just like every other Papua New Guinean, have every right to know how their loved ones have vanished without a trace while travelling along the shores or out in the open oceans.
In recent years in East New Britain, sea pirates caught by police were prosecuted and sentenced to death.
In the Gulf of Papua, travellers from Gulf and Western fall victim to sea and river pirates.
Along the Northern Province waters and Milne Bay waters, sea piracy is becoming a common law and order issue. In the last two years, wanted criminal Tommy Baker led a string of piracy attacks.
He is still on the run.
Papua New Guinea has a vast coastline and many islands.
In fact, our coastline is said to be 5,152 km (3,201 miles) long. And out in the open seas, there are many big islands and even more smaller islands, many uninhabited.
Policing the vast coastline and the islands is nonexistent.
Once in a while, we hear of piracy, boats shot up, people robbed, women kidnapped and sexually abused, children subjected to trauma.
Some victims are never to be heard of or seen again.
In the absence of anything resembling a coast guard, the government needs to have a policy on this that works for public confidence, public protection and interest.
The NMSA needs to seriously consider this as a national threat to the safety of our travelling public who use small craft and smalls ships for movement of passengers and cargo.
Police boats given to maritime provinces are virtually useless given that they are hardly used on anti-piracy patrols due to lack of funding.
Boat travellers and seagoing ships are tired of this. Incidences of piracy are now being reported on our country’s big rivers and waterways. This is adding to the fear our people face.
Some years ago, the NMSA made it compulsory for small boats to be registered, and owners to provide emergency equipment on their craft.
This law is not effective, just as taxi meters for taxi operators is non operable on land.
In this age of rocket science, internet and robots, and drones, finding missing boats or hijacked craft using GPS, should be made mandatory and the costs passed onto dinghy manufacturers to include Emergency Position Indicator Radio Beacon on their products.
Frankly, we have had enough of piracy on the high seas and on our rivers.

Women do not feel safe on the streets of London following the death of teacher Sabina Nessa, according to one of the organisers of a vigil in her memory. Anna Birley, 32, co-founder of Reclaim These Streets, has urged the Government to reform the education and criminal justice systems to stop misogyny and violence against women in the wake of her death.
A vigil for Sabina Nessa, 28, is due to take place on Friday evening at Pegler Square in Kidbrooke, south-east London. The primary school teacher had been heading for a pub in the square to meet a friend last Friday when she was fatally attacked on a walk which should have taken five minutes.
Misogynistic and gender-based violence
Reclaim These Streets organised the Clapham vigil for Sarah Everard after she was abducted and murdered earlier this year, and an event to remember murdered sisters Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman at Wembley in 2020.
Six days afterSabina Nessa’s death, Birley told the PA news agency:
I think women don’t feel safe in public.
We often get told when the worst happens that murder of a woman by a stranger in a public place is very rare and we are very safe.
But the thing is our lived experience of street harassment, cat-calling, a man exposing himself to us, tell us we’re not safe, and murder is rarely the first crime someone commits.
Misogynistic and gender-based violence is likely to have come about as an escalation and I don’t know a woman who hasn’t experienced something along that spectrum.
You never know when one of those things is going to put us in danger.
We hope that anyone who saw anything will come forward to the police.
It’s scary for people, especially women in that community knowing that there’s a violent perpetrator still at large.
Sabina Nessa was killed while walking to meet a friend at a pub near her home (Met Police/PA) But however well-meaning advice is for women to stay at home for their own safety or to carry rape alarms with them, it doesn’t actually fix the problem of violence against women.
We shouldn’t be looking to solutions that require women to change their behaviour.
Women should be able to walk five minutes across a park at any time of day or night without fear of violence.
We need to tackle the “deep-rooted culture of misogyny in British culture”
Birley said the government urgently needs to fix the “deep-rooted culture of misogyny in British culture” by reforming the criminal justice system to achieve a higher conviction rate against rapists, introduce anti-misogyny training for police, and bring in lessons in schools aimed at “tackling toxic masculinity” from a young age.
She added that hundreds of women are likely to turn up for the vigil for Sabina Nessa on Friday. She said:
I hope for Sabina’s sake that people come,
Her name deserves to be heard and she deserves to be remembered not just as a victim but as an amazing teacher and member of the community and as a sister and a friend.
She deserves the same outcry and outpouring that other women get.

Breaching covid-19 restrictions in New Zealand will now mean an increased infringement fee of up to $12,000 for individuals when imposed by a court, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has announced.
Speaking at the daily covid-19 briefing today, Ardern said fines for breaches of the Covid-19 Public Health Response Act were being increased because of the view that the infringement regime did not reflect the severity of breaches.
“Our success has been really based on the fact that people by and large have been really compliant … however, there has been the odd person [who] has broken the rules and put others at risk,” she said.
- READ MORE: Covid-19: 14 new cases in the community today – Bloomfield
- NZ experts say Auckland move to alert level 3 ‘risky’ – but PM still confident
- Other NZ covid lockdown reports
“Specifically we’ve had some people break out of MIQ, including in a handful of cases with covid, who have posed a threat to the community.”
She said there were some issues very early on, but they had reduced when the government introduced fines for those who breached the rules, such as alert levels or breaking the rules of MIQ.
“It’s Cabinet’s view that these fees don’t properly reflect the significant social and economic impacts of a single case of covid-19 getting out into the community, and nor do they act as a sufficient incentive to play by the rules,” Ardern said.
Like with a traffic ticket, people can be issued an infringement notice for breaking the rules. If the infringement fee is not paid in full by the due date it is referred to the Ministry of Justice for enforcement, when it becomes a “fine”.
On-the-spot fines
On-the-spot infringement notice fees were initially set at $300, with fines of up to $1000 when imposed by a court, but Ardern today said they would increase.Infringement notices would increase to $4000 for individuals, and $12,000 for companies, while fines imposed by courts would increase to a maximum of $12,000 for individuals and $15,000 for companies.
Covid-19 infringement fines. Video: RNZ News
People convicted for criminal offences — such as intentionally failing to comply with an order, or intentionally threatening, assaulting, or hindering an enforcement officer — may also face fines and prison.
The fine for criminal offending would increase from $4000 to $12,000 or six months imprisonment, with an additional fee of up to $15,000 introduced for companies.
Ardern said those were maximums subject to the court’s discretion, and would take effect from November 2021, subject to the passing of the Covid-19 Public Health Response Amendment Bill.
These fines are for people who do something specified as an infringement offence in a covid-19 order.
She said there was a balance between making sure people understood the rules, but also the consequences of breaking those rules.
Setting up the framework
“I think the sheer magnitude of having someone with covid-19 who breaks those rules, the impact on the community, we need to make sure that the fines really do reflect the gravity of the situation.”The prosecutions were not made by politicians, she said.
“The prosecution decisions aren’t ultimately made by us. We need to set up the framework and the infringements that are available should those prosecutions be taken. And I think actually from the general public there would probably be a bit of a view that when you are putting people at risk you need to have an infringement regime that reflects the seriousness of some of that rule-breaking.
“Where they’re used and how they’re used, what fines are awarded, that sits out of our hands.”
In a statement, Covid-19 Response Minister Chris Hipkins said examples of infringement offences would include failure to wear a face covering in places where it is mandatory.
Criminal offences could include travelling without permission, or travelling for a purpose other than what was permitted, from an alert level 4 or 3 area to alert level 2.
14 new community cases
The Ministry of Health has reported 14 new community cases of covid-19 in the community today — a drop from the past three days.In a statement, the ministry said there is also one historical case at the border.
Thirteen of today’s cases have been epidemiologically linked while one is still being investigated.
Today’s number of community cases includes one positive result from Upper Hauraki, which is under a section 70 order. They are a household contact who was tested yesterday, the ministry said.
“Two previously confirmed cases from Saturday and from yesterday have now been reclassified as under investigation,” Director-General of Health Dr Ashley Bloomfield said.
“As a result, today’s net increase is 13 cases.”
Dr Bloomfield said the ministry expected another further 50 to 60 cases from household contacts in the next week or so.

An Australian criminologist who deemed the New Zealand shopping mall attacker “low risk” in 2018 believes there were missed opportunities to steer him away from violent extremism.
Ahamed Samsudeen was described as a high risk to the community when he was sentenced in July for possessing Islamic State propaganda — with the means and motivation to commit violent acts.
However, three years earlier, Australian National University criminologist Dr Clarke Jones told the High Court Ahamed did not appear to be violent and did not fit the profile of a young Muslim person who had been radicalised.

- Other reports on the NZ terror attack
At the time Dr Jones suggested “a carefully designed, culturally sensitive and closely supervised intervention programme in the Auckland Muslim community”.
Now, he said, it was unclear how much rehabilitation actually took place.
“People can change, sometimes quickly, sometimes over a longer period of time. But back in 2018, we didn’t think that he was violent,” he explained.
At the time Samsudeen appeared to feel marginalised and disconnected, Dr Clarke said, like he couldn’t “get his foot up” in society.
‘Rigid life views’
“Some of the material he was reading was of concern and he had fairly rigid views around religion and around life in general. But he’d also had some experience in difficult times and was, I would argue, deeply depressed.”On Friday, Samsudeen walked into a Countdown supermarket in LynnMall, picked up a knife and stabbed at least shoppers, leaving some of them critically injured, before he was shot dead by tactical force police tailing him.
Ahamed Aathill Mohamed Samsudeen as identified in New Zealand news media. Image: TVNZ screenshot APR In the High Court in July, Samsudeen had admitted two charges of using a document for pecuniary advantage, two charges of knowingly distributing restricted material and one charge of failing to assist the police in their exercise of a search power.
Another expert was consulted — forensic psychiatrist Dr Jeremy Skipworth — who echoed Dr Clarke’ concerns.
“Dr Skipworth said that any form of home detention would tend to further exacerbate your mental health concerns, and that your successful community reintegration is likely to be assisted by cornerstones, such as stable housing, personal support, appropriate employment and medical care,” reads Justice Wylie’s sentencing notes.
Justice Wylie imposed a sentence of supervision, with special conditions, including a psychological assessment and a rehabilitation programme with a service called Just Community.
Dr Jones said he really would like to know more about what support Samsudeen was actually given in Corrections.
‘Was he responsive?’
“Was he responsive to that treatment, if he was receiving any treatment at all, or was the focus more on on the security side and the monitoring and the surveillance?”Asked if the terrorist had enough support to “get better”, Deputy Prime Minister Grant Robertson said there had been attempts to change the man’s mind — and none of them were successful.
But in a family statement released after the attack, Samsudeen’s brother said he sometimes listened.
“He would hang up the phone on us when we told him to forget about all of the issues he was obsessed with. Then he would call us back again himself when he realised he was wrong.
“Aathil was wrong again [on Friday]. Of course we feel very sad that he could not be saved. The prisons and the situation was hard on him and he did not have any support. He told us he was assaulted there.”
Dr Clarke said, “I would say that we haven’t got the balance right. In this case there was too much focus on the counter-terrorism or counter violent extremism narrative, rather than actually getting to the core of what was wrong with Mr Samsudeen.”
“We can always improve the way we do things to have have greater preventative sort of mechanisms within government, police and communities.”
Dr Clarke said what happened in LynnMall was a tragedy and a terrible situation.

The mother of Auckland’s LynnMall shopping mall terror attacker in New Zealand says he was brainwashed by neighbours from the Middle East.
Ahamed Aathill Mohamed Samsudeen, a 32-year-old refugee originally from Sri Lanka, was shot dead by undercover police after stabbing six people inside Countdown in LynnMall on Friday.
His mother, Ismail Fareeda, has told a television channel in Sri Lanka that neighbours from Syria and Iraq radicalised Aathil Samsudeen when he was injured in a fall in Sri Lanka in 2016.
She said her son then started posting radical views on social media.
Fareeda said there was a change in her son after he had left Sri Lanka and settled in New Zealand in 2011.
She said her two other sons had reprimanded the 32-year-old over his radical views.
‘Heartbroken by this terrible act’
In a statement released via a lawyer and credited to Samsudeen’s brother, Aroos, his whānau said they were “heartbroken by this terrible act” and they wanted to send love and support to those who were hurt.The statement said Samsudeen, who arrived in New Zealand in 2011 on a student visa, suffered from “political torture” and his mental health steadily declined over the years.
Samsudeen spent a lot of time on social media, it said.
“We saw his mental health got worse and worse during the last 10 years or so. He spent a lot of his time in prison and was always struggling with some court cases. When we heard that he was in prison in New Zealand, we thought it would do him some good but didn’t realise he would spend so much time there. He also had many problems in prison.”
Members of the wider family visited New Zealand in 2013.
“We love your country and your people and we know from what we have seen since the Christchurch attack that you are good people. We want to stand with you. We have lost Aathil. We don’t know what to do while our father is still very ill and doesn’t know about this situation.
Sri Lankan government collaboration
The Sri Lankan government was promising to work with New Zealand authorities over the supermarket stabbings, AFP reported.It had been investigating whether Samsudeen was linked to the bombings in Colombo on Easter Sunday 2019, which killed 279 people in attacks on three churches and three hotels.
The bombings were blamed on a group that pledged allegiance to the then Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
A spokesperson for Sri Lanka’s foreign ministry said the government there condemned the senseless violence of the west Auckland attack and would cooperate with the New Zealand authorities in any way necessary.

Name suppression for the man responsible for yesterday’s New Zealand terror attack at a west Auckland supermarket has been revoked, but his name cannot be published yet.
The High Court has given his family who live overseas at least 24 hours to seek further suppression orders.
The Sri Lankan national was shot dead by police after stabbing six people inside Countdown in LynnMall.
Suppression orders prevented details about his identity and background from being made public.
The government filed an urgent application last night to have the court orders lifted, so details about the man’s identity and background could be made public.
In a judgment last night, Justice Wylie said there was no longer any proper basis for the suppression orders.
But he said the man’s family live overseas and lawyers needed time to contact them to take instructions.
He said he could consider extending the 24-hour period if needed.
Isis propaganda
However, it can be revealed the man was sentenced in July to one year of supervision after he was found guilty by a jury in the High Court at Auckland of two charges of possessing Isis propaganda that promoted terrorism.He was found guilty of another charge of failing to comply with a search, but he was acquitted of a third charge of possession of objectionable material and a charge of possessing a knife in a public place.
Al Jazeera reporting of the New Zealand supermarket stabbing. Image: AJ screenshot APR The state had sought to charge him under the Terrorism Suppression Act, but failed after a High Court judge ruled that planning a terror attack was not an offence under the law.
Because he had already spent three years in custody awaiting trial, he did not receive a further prison term for his offending.
Despite that, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said he had been under surveillance since 2016, because of his support for a violent ideology inspired by Islamic State.
The man was being so closely monitored by a surveillance and tactical team that police shot him within 60 seconds of the attack starting.
On the radar of authorities
He arrived in New Zealand in October 2011.He first came to the attention of authorities in 2016, when police formally warned him about posting anti-Western, pro-Isis, extremist content on the internet.
The man had also at some point told a worshipper at an Auckland mosque that he wanted to go to Syria to fight for Isis.
In a July 2020 judgment, Justice Downs said in May 2017, he had booked a one-way flight to Singapore but was arrested at Auckland Airport.
When police searched his apartment, they found a large hunting knife under the mattress on the floor and secure digital cards containing fundamentalist material, including propaganda videos and photos of the man posing with a firearm.
He was remanded in custody and in June 2018, he pleaded guilty to distributing restricted publications. In August 2018, he was sentenced to supervision, Justice Downs’ 2020 judgment said.
But the day after his sentencing, he went and bought the same model of hunting knife that police had earlier found under his mattress.
Arrested again
He was arrested again and another search found a large he had a large amount of violent Isis material, including one video about how to kill “non-Muslims”.This time, the state sought to charge the man under the Terrorism Suppression Act, for planning a terrorist act.
But Justice Downs said that in itself was not an offence under the law.
In his decision, Justice Downs said: “Terrorism is a great evil. ‘Lone wolf’ terrorist attacks with knives and other makeshift weapons, such as cars or trucks, are far from unheard of.
“Recent events in Christchurch demonstrate New Zealand should not be complacent. Some among us are prepared to use lethal violence for ideological, political or religious causes.
“The absence of an offence of planning or preparing a terrorist act … could be an Achilles heel.”
Justice Downs said it was not for the courts to create such an offence.
“The issue is for Parliament,” he said.
A copy of Justice Downs’ judgment was provided to the Attorney-General, the Solicitor-General and the Law Commission.
High Court trial
The man finally stood trial in the High Court at Auckland in May this year, on lesser charges.A jury found him guilty of two charges of possessing Isis propaganda that promoted terrorism and one charge of failing to comply with a search.
He was acquitted of a third charge of possessing objectionable material and a charge of possessing a knife in a public place.
The man was sentenced in July.
In her sentencing notes, Justice Fitzgerald said the two publications on which he was found guilty were “nasheeds” – religious hymns.
Both were classified by the Censor as objectionable and contained Isis imagery and lyrics.
Justice Fitzgerald did not accept the explanation that he was listening to them to improve his Arabic language skills.
“Rather, I accept that the broader context to your possession of these nasheeds, which included a range of other materials relating to Isis or Isil, suggests that you have an operative interest in Isis.
“In other words, I do not accept that you might have simply stumbled across these and other Isis-related materials in your research of Islam or the historic Islamic State,” she said.
Report raised further flags
A pre-sentencing report raised further flags.“The report writer suggests that you support the goals and methods of Isis,” Justice Fitzgerald said.
“The report writer concludes that the risk of you reoffending in a similar way to the present charges is high.
“It suggests that you have the means and motivation to commit violent acts in the community and, despite not having violently offended to date, as posing a very high risk of harm to others.”
Given he had already spent three years in custody awaiting trial, the man was sentenced to one-year supervision.
There were restrictions on his use of electronic devices, the internet and social media.
“The Police and Community Corrections clearly have concerns that you pose a not insignificant risk to the broader community,” Justice Fitzgerald said in her sentencing notes.
“I do not know whether those concerns are right and I sincerely hope that they are not, though having regard to all of the materials available to the court, I can say that they are not wholly fanciful.”
