Speaking to SIBC’s Distaem Nao Program, Mr Manelusi  said only  four  days remained before the amnesty  period lapses midnight Friday 9th June 2017.

He said citizens are asked to encourage anyone who might in possession of firearms to hand in to the police before it is too late.

“Police will not tolerate, but investigate and to enforce the full force of the law, to those who might police believed, are still possessed with arms after number nine,” Manelusi said.

Meanwhile the Deputy Commissioner said total number of arms surrendered to police still stand at three.

“Three rifles and a pistol and more than thousand ammunition have been surrendered to police,” he said.

The amnesty program is a joint disarmament task force led by the Royal Solomon Islands Police Force, RSIPF, and supported by the Solomon Islands Post Conflict Rehabilitation and Restoration Association, SIPCRRA.
