“The stepfather is now detained in a police lockup awaiting court appearance,.
“I reiterate my advice again to women or mothers who are remarrying or are remarried: we have received many reports in relation to crimes committed by stepfathers.

“We also arrested a solider recently who assaulted his step daughter in Lae and now, we have arrested a man for the baby’s murder.
