The Royal Solomon Islands Police Force (RSIPF) is still awaiting the postmortem result of the young man who died in state custody.

Police Commissioner Frank Prendergast says police is very committed for a transparent investigation into the matter.

Mr Prendergast says, the matter will be subjected to an enquiry under the Death and Custody Act.

He adds, the result will be made known to the public when it is available.

“I can advise that we are still awaiting the results of the post-mortem, but as discussed we are very committed to a transparent investigation into that matter and it will be a subject of an enquiry under the Death and Custody Act once we have those details, so we’ll make an announcement once we have the results of the post-mortem.”

The Police Commissioner made the announcement during his latest weekly media conference.
