SO WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENED TO O’NEILL’S CITIZENSHIP ISSUE?
By Bryan Kramer | Kramer Report
///////////////////////////////////////////////////
On 14th November 2019, former Prime Minister Peter O’Neill released a press statement announcing he had registered a criminal complaint against me on 22nd May 2019 and 28 October 2019 in relation to my false citizenship claims against him – offending against section 21 & 23 of Cyber-crime Act.
He questioned why Police have failed to act on his complaint.
Section 21 of Cyber-crime Act, entitled Defamation Publication, relates to defamatory publication or publishing something that is false that damages a person’s reputation, while Section 23 of Cyber-Crime Act entitled Cyber-Harassment, relates to a publication that causes intimidation, emotional stress or harassment.
A defense to both offences is where the publication is fair comment, justified and made in good faith, or based on the truth.
So what is the status of my citizenship claim against O’Neill?
Short answer is the matter is currently in Court.
In May 2019 and in the height of vote of no confidence O’Neill filed defamation proceedings against me over my publication questioning his citizenship status.
He also filed an sworn affidavit he has never been a citizen of Australia.
The issue will now be determined by the Court.
In the course of those proceedings I have formally engaged a law firm in Australia to lodge a formal application under Australian Freedom to Information Act to obtain his citizenship status.
In the event the Australian Government refuses to disclose O’Neill’s citizenship status I will consult the Prime Minister James Marape to make a formal request through bilateral channels.
As the matter is before the Court I won’t comment or provide any further particulars.

BK,
While some of your tasks are being applauded, you are taking it too personnel on the former PMPO. Leave the Citizenship issue with the minister responsible of immigration and foreign affairs to deal with.
You think the Immigration minister will do it? In telling you he won’t. BK does it better.
Please BK,
Finish what you have dug out because its of PNGeans national interests.You are doing it for the silent majority of your country men, women and children’s’ future.
Therefore such information must be disclosed to public and the citizens must know their leaders status and doings because they public figures representing us nationally and internationally.
As the saying goes” ONLY TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH WILL SET US FREE”
