Last of Fijian group arrested on sedition charges bailed

FBC New reports these were the last of the accused who had been remanded in custody after being arrested three months ago.

Twenty of the 42 accused were granted bail two weeks ago.

They are on bail bonds of US$464 and directed to report to the nearest police stations each Saturday and Monday.

More sedition arrests in Fiji

FBC News reports the men were apprehended in Vanua Levu, in the country's North, but did not say how many had been arrested.

The director of intelligence and investigations, Henry Brown, says the suspects fled to the North when police made a series of arrests in the Western Division.

He says the men have been returned to the West for questioning, and the main focus of investigations remains the Nadroga and Ra regions.
