Controversies
Kingsley was suspended from his portfolio in March 2003, after being arrested for allegedly threatening a university professor with a firearm in Port Moresby in December 2002. The charges were dropped when the main police prosecutor withdrew from the case shortly before the first hearing and the case was dismissed by the judge.
In September 2011, Kingsley was arrested and charged for the misappropriation of PGK6.6 million (US$2.9 million) from the PGK125 million Sovereign Community Infrastructure Treasury Bill, which was issued for development purposes in Kokopo district.
