Suva man, Jone Vakarisi appeared in the Suva Magistrates Court again this afternoon under heavy police presence and the case will be called again at 4pm for Police to argue why they are objecting to bail after the prosecution said that Vakarisi is the alleged instigator of the brawl in Nabua.

The Police prosecution told the court that Vakarisi was in a relationship with the girl and that they had a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship.
Vakarisi told the court that he has taken a tabua to the girl's family.

He also told the court that he now lives in Rewa Street and not Nabua.
