Police say they are in the process of rounding up investigations in Manoa Malani’s case before submitting the file to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions.

Malani was taken in by police on Friday afternoon after he was seen protesting with his wife Veronica Malani and a few others against the Acting Prime Minister Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum at their residence in Flagstaff.

Veronica Malani had told fijivillage they did this because their permit application for a march from Government House to Albert Park was declined by Police.

In their application, the Malani family had said that it was a march for protest against Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum.

Malani says they then decided to do a protest in their compound on Friday morning.

She says straight after that, a van, 2 twin cabs and another vehicle full of police officers arrived and told her husband that they were going to take him in.

Meanwhile the Director of Public Prosecutions had earlier decided that no charges will be laid against Sayed-Khaiyum after Veronica Malani alleged that he was involved in two bombing incidents in 1987.
