"The Paraka Scams" is the name being given on the internet to the findings of the Commission of Inquiry into the Finance Department, which ran from 2006 until 2009.
We can’t say why this name has been adopted as Paul Paraka, a prominent lawyer, and Zacchary Gelu, a former Solicitor General, have a court injunction that stops publication of the findings from the Commission of Inquiry investigation.
Despite the injunction though, details of those findings have been appearing in the foreign media. Two prominent stories have appeared in The Australian newspaper and several blog sites including pngexposed and wakeuppng, have published parts of the Commission report and details of some of the scams and those involved.
Meanwhile, it appears neither the government or the Opposition have done anything to try and overturn the injunction obtained by Paraka and Gelu. And to add insult to injury, when the matter was listed in court last week it had to be adjourned as the court file had gone missing from the Registry.
ACT NOW! members and the wider general public are entitled to be sceptical when they fund a three year Commission of Inquiry process only to have the findings locked away by the courts on the application of those who perhaps have most to hide and nobody is prepared to challenge the decision.
Lets hope that the injunction is soon lifted and those responsible for the alleged theft of public monies are brought to justice.
In the meantime, the fortunate few with access to the internet can read about the shocking crimes allegedly carried out by some of our most senior lawyers and public servants on those overseas blog sites.

It's so sick how Gabriel Yer came out in the Post Courier
It's so sick how Gabriel Yer came out in the Post Courier (20/05/2010) claiming to be clean. Who is he fooling? Maybe the illiterate and ignorant PNGeans but by now every educated PNGeans know that he is as corrupt as hell. He thinks he can manipulate the system and get away with the years of misuse and abuse of tax-payers money, he will surely get what is coming in his way. His days are numbered!
YEP,DIINO,HIS DAYS ARE NUMBERED HERE ON PLANET EARTH,BUT FROM
YEP,DIINO,HIS DAYS ARE NUMBERED HERE ON PLANET EARTH,BUT FROM HERE WHERE IS HE GOING TO REST.HEAVEN IS NOT FOR PEOPLE WHO THINK ONLY OF THEMSELVES.IF IT WAS ME I WOULD SAY NOTHING AND GO AND HAVE A TALK WITH MY "PADTEL" AND DO WHAT IS RIGHT BEFORE MAN AND GOD WHO SEE ALL,KNOWS ALL,DARKNESS TO HIM IS DAYLIGHT,ONE THOUSAND YEARS TO HIM IS JUST ONE DAY ETC ETC.
The pikato/sins of the fathers pass on to their children.I pray people like him and others like him will make it right before dead comings knocking on the door of their lives.Truly money in the case of such cases is truly and utterly evil and demonic in every sense of the word.Bible says everything else will pass away but God's Word will not.Elsewhere in the Word of God, bible says:"..so is my Word that goes out from my mouth;It will not return to me empty,but will Accomplish the purpose for which I sent it"
All of us forgot we will all get what is coming to us both here on this earth and also when we die.
Pray those who have been stealing from the people of PNG do right before dead comes knocking at the door of their precarious lives.The step they are taking is very very slippery and the Fatal Fall is Dead!!!.
