GBV Strategy targets better support for survivors

Five men from Nipa, Southern Highlands Province, have been sentenced to a combined 90 years in prison following a major marijuana trafficking case in Western Province. In addition to the prison sentences, the individuals were collectively fined K1.1 million for their involvement in the illegal haul.

This sentencing represents a significant legal action against large-scale drug trafficking in the region. The case highlights ongoing efforts by authorities to address the movement of illicit substances across provincial borders in Papua New Guinea.
