Discussions about potential immunity for the 16 defendants involved in the significant 2.6-tonne drug seizure at Vatia Wharf in Tavua took center stage today at the Ba High Court. Deputy Director of Public Prosecutions, John Rabuku, informed the court that there are opportunities available for the accused. He emphasized that defense attorneys should communicate their clients’ positions concerning these options to the prosecution.
The substantive matter related to the case has been postponed and is now scheduled for March 20. This ongoing legal situation underscores the complexities involved in drug-related cases and the pursuit of justice within the judicial system. The court’s proceedings will continue to be closely monitored as the situation develops, highlighting the hope for a fair resolution in the upcoming hearings.
