Prosecutors benefit from Workshop

Before heading to court, Goroka-based Public Prosecutor Jasmine Omena makes a point of catching up with lawyers in the Public Solicitor’s Office to discuss the cases due to come up.

“Before we go to court we iron out any issues that need addressing, and we prepare ourselves to go to court,” Omena says.

As a result, less court time is wasted on unnecessary disputes and misunderstandings and cases can be dealt with in a more timely and efficient manner.

Omena says this new way of doing things came after she attended a Trial Advocacy Workshop supported by the PNG-Australia Partnership in Port Moresby.

The workshop was organised by the Office of the Public Prosecutor and attended by 70 lawyers and prosecutors.  It was aimed at improving communication and consultation between public prosecutors, police prosecutors and defence lawyers and also strengthening their ability to advocate confidently on increasingly complex and demanding court cases.

Public Solicitor’s Office Legal Officer, Sharon Pitep, is looking forward to seeing improvements in communication with prosecutors.

“It is very important to build up good working relationships with the public prosecutors and police prosecutors because, at the end of the day, we are all working to see to it that justice is served,” Pitep says.

Alotau based Senior Constable Joseph Ambere, a police prosecutor for the past 10 years, says the insights he gained in conducting examinations and cross-examinations of witnesses, preparing and presenting evidence and developing indictments would be very useful in his day-to-day work.

  1. I think everything composed made a ton of sense. However, what about this?
    suppose you wrote a catchier title? I ain’t suggesting your information isn’t good, but
    what if you added a post title to maybe grab folk’s attention? I mean Prosecutors benefit from Workshop | pngbuzz.com is kinda
    plain. You could peek at Yahoo’s front page and watch how they create
    news headlines to grab viewers to open the links. You
    might try adding a video or a related pic or two to grab people
    interested about everything’ve written. In my opinion, it
    would make your blog a little bit more interesting.

  2. Hey would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using?

    I’m planning to start my own blog soon but I’m having a tough time
    choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.

    P.S Sorry for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

    your work. If you are even remotely interested, feel free to send me an e-mail.

  4. Hello! I know this is kind of off topic but I was
    wondering which blog platform are you using for this site?
    I’m getting fed up of WordPress because I’ve had problems with hackers and I’m looking at
    alternatives for another platform. I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
