A photo of the Queensland Police Facebook post about Robert Johnstone, for which it has apologised and removed.

Queensland police have had to apologise after celebrating a serving officer who helped massacre a large group of Indigenous people in 1873.

The post on the myPolice Cape York Facebook Page, seen by Guardian Australia has now been deleted. It was a “Flashback Friday”, eulogising the officer.

It read:

Robert Johnstone was born in Richmond, Tasmania 1843 with his family moving to Victoria in 1851.

It recounted his life, move to Queensland and how in 1876 he discovered and named the Barron River before his death in 1905.

It did not mention Johnstone’s own claims that he was responsible for the death of 35 First Nations people in a massacre at Mt Farquharson or other killings and beating of First Nations people during his service.

In a statement, QPS said:

This morning, a local Facebook post was published on the MyPolice Far North Facebook pages featuring historical information about a police officer from the local area in the 1800s.
