Risk to life
TWO Post- Courier reporters were trying to help a woman in Lae who fell 
over when chased by angry bystanders at Chinatown. Minutes later they were 
approached by two drivers accusing them of having run down the woman. They 
suggested the two should go to the police station to sort out the matter 
and so they left. Minutes later, a work mate ran up and said "Boss nogat 
ya, meri ya kisim sik muruk na pundaun" (Boss there was no death, the lady 
fell because she had epilepsy). The reporters could have been killed for 
trying to save a life.
