Police barracks condemned but who is to blame?
Submitted by rait man on Thu, 08/04/2010 - 09:30One hundred police and their families have been left homeless in Lae after health authorities declared the Bumbu police barracks unfit for human habitation.
In an inspection carried out on Tuesday it was found the houses were infested with termites, there was a serious sewerage overflow and no power or water supplies.
It is reported that the houses have received no major maintenance since they were constructed in the 1960's and two homes recently collapsed on top of sleeping families.
