10 Chinese nationals

Three arrested over killing of 10 Chinese in PNG

They died when their shop was set on fire.

Police have reported that detectives arrested and charged the three suspects last week.

Because of a lack of funding the investigation into the killings had been stopped but money from the provincial government allowed police to re-open the case.

Deputy commissioner of police operations, Donald Yamasombi, said the three suspects had been charged with breaking into the building with intent to commit a crime, 10 counts of wilful murder, and arson.
