Tuila'epa Sa'ilele Malielegaoi spoke about the matter on national television after he learned about a man arrested during a recent police raid which garnered illegal firearms, drugs and ammunition.
Police said the man had been charged three times before on the same charges but had been released on bail.
Tuila'epa says it appears judges are living on a different planet and are completely ignorant of the reality the police are working with.
The man is due to appear in court on 28 August.
