National Capital District Governor, Powes Parkop, has denied allegations that he was carrying a substantial amount of money to buy votes on the eve of today’s polling in the nation’s Capital. Governor Parkop Mr Parkop was picked up by police yesterday evening at the 5 Mile roundabout when he was returning from Gereka after meeting with his campaign coordinators. Police found K25 000 in his car, and took him in for questioning at the Boroko Police Station for four hours, but later released him. Mr Parkop told reporters last night that he was not arrested but only asked to provide a statement of his routine of the day.  He says that these allegations by rival candidates in the 11th hour are a bad practice, and not befitting of a leader. Mr. Parkop said that the money will be used to pay for his 800 plus scrutineers. NBC / PNG Today Next :  SP PNG Hunters team for Round 14 match against Wynnum-Manly Seagulls
