A suspect in the Jordan killing incident in East Kwaio, Malaita province, has been moved to a facility with tighter security.

The suspect is reportedly recovering at the national referral hospital in Honiara.

Malaita police commander Superintendent Michael Ramosaea told the paper that they were wary of any attempt at escaping, hence the transfer of the suspect to the police medical unit at the referral hospital.

Ramosaea said the suspect will remain in the police medical ward until he fully recovers before being transferred to Rove Correctional Facility for his court proceedings. 

“The suspect in the Jordan killing incident has already been moved to the police medical ward at national referral hospital. This is to avoid the suspect’s escape from his allegations.

“He will be remanded there until he has recovered well before he moves to Rove Correctional Services and for court proceedings,” Ramosaea said.

The suspect is alleged of killing another man at Jordan village in East Kwaio, Malaita province in June this year.
