Fiji's attorney general won't face charges over 1987 bombings


Fiji's public prosecutor has thrown out a case against the country's attorney, saying there is insufficient evidence to charge him in relation to two bombings in Suva 30 years ago.
An investigation was opened into Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum in July, after a complaint was laid alleging that in 1987, he planted the bombs amid soaring ethnic tensions and the coup of Sitiveni Rabuka.
But in a statement this week, director of public prosecutions Christopher Pryde said there was not enough evidence to back the allegations.

"It is our opinion that there is insufficient credible or reliable evidence to support any criminal charges being laid against the attorney-general," he said. "Therefore, the docket has been returned to police with the instruction not to charge and no further action is required."
