The incident reportedly took place on October 20, during a confrontation between the two, which escalated into violence resulting in the victim’s death.
Following the investigation, authorities consulted with the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions, which led to the formal charging of the accused with murder. The accused is scheduled to appear before the Savusavu Magistrates Court today.
