MOTI AFFAIR: Moti a political liability in Melanesia
PFnet News
21/02/07
(The National Express) -

The Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea top political leadership is likely to continue facing questions relating to the controversial removal of Australia's fugitive lawyer, Julian Moti.

The latest twist in the Moti saga is an affidavit served on the PNG Prime Minister Sir Michael Somare to appear before the PNG Defence Board of Inquiry this week.

Prime Minister Michael Somare has been summoned to answer claims by the former Director-General of the National Security Advisory Council, Joseph Assaigo that Somare ordered the clandestine operation for a PNG Defence aircraft to fly Moti to Solomon Islands on October 10th last year, when the fugitive Australian lawyer was in police custody in Port Moresby.

Moti's military-assisted escape has angered Canberra, as Australia was seeking to extradite Moti who is an Australian citizen to face child sex charges alleged to have been committed a decade ago in Vanuatu.

Prime Minister Somare has consistently denied that he had sanctioned Moti's escape flight.

Mr. Assaigo's allegation is contained in a statement he filed in court last week challenging Chief Secretary Joshua Kalinoe's decision that he was guilty of insubordination and disobeying lawful orders in organising Moti's escape to Solomon Islands.

Mr. Assaigo is also challenging a PNG Cabinet decision to dismiss him from his security chief's job.

In his statement, Mr. Assaigo said he was told by Sir Michael's chief of staff Leonard Louma had advised that Sir Michael directed Mr. Kalinoe to get rid of Mr. Moti.

Mr. Louma later told him that Sir Michael was disappointed the order to remove Mr. Moti had not been carried out, Mr. Assaigo said.

He said he later met Mr. Kalinoe and discussed logistical options to remove Mr. Moti from PNG. Mr. Louma then rang him to say Sir Michael had issued directions to have Mr. Moti removed, Mr. Assaigo said.

He met Mr. Louma and was directed to use either the police helicopter or the PNG Defence Force air unit to fly Mr. Moti out.

Mr. Assaigo said because of the risk involved, he wanted to speak with Mr. Kalinoe first. But Mr. Louma became "agitated and angry", assuring him that should anything happen he had Sir Michael's protection.

He said he communicated the direction to the acting commander of the PNG Defence Force, Tom Ur, and the order was carried out.

"This is what happened in the repatriation of Moti," Mr. Assaigo said in the statement. "The direction was given by the Prime Minister in his capacity as the Chairman of the National Security Council, through his chief of staff, who communicated the same to me."

Mr. Assaigo has testified to a PNG Defence Force board of inquiry into Mr. Moti's escape flight, along with Mr. Kalinoe and Mr. Louma who both denied giving any orders to him to have Mr. Moti flown out.

The inquiry has been barred from visiting the Solomons by the Solomon Islands government.

Solomons Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare wants Mr. Moti as his attorney-general but the country's Public Service Commission suspended him from the appointment because of the serious Australian charges against him.

Mr. Moti remains in Honiara, staying in a hotel at the Government's expense while he seeks to over-turn his suspension.
