The eviction at Garden Hills settlement in Port Moresby will proceed unhindered as the owners of the land, the Assemblies of God (AOG) Church have obtained a court order to do this.
There was also more than 30 days notice issued for squatters to vacate the land.
Police have issued a statement that unless a restraining order is obtained from the court, the eviction would proceed.
Prime Minister James Marape yesterday released a statement asking the land lease holder to halt eviction and collaborate with NCDC and the Department of Lands and Physical Planning to find land to settle those affected.
The public has disapproved the stance taken by Marape and praised police for being firm and independent in executing their duties.
