Cabinet approves extension of Samoa Police Commissioner’s contract

The extension was confirmed today in a statement signed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Ministry of Prime Minister and Cabinet/Secretary to Cabinet, Agafili Shem Leo.

The statement from Cabinet is in response to an article in the Samoa Observer newspaper titled “Police Chief’s contract cut short by Cabinet” published on Sunday 6th of June and related editorial, “Revoking of Top Cop’s Contract bad timing” published on Monday 7th of June.

The statement refuted the article and editorial saying “This is INCORRECT.”
