Solomon Islands police official denies protest

A deputy police commissioner in Solomon Islands says there is no truth in local reports that some officers plan a sit-in protest.

This follows concerns the police would strike over a delay in the payment of their Covid-19 allowances.

Deputy Commissioner Ian Vaevaso said these media reports are wrong.

He said he thinks very few unruly officers are tarnishing the good image of the Royal Solomon Islands Police Force by speaking to the media.
