The State has today indicated that they will withdraw the charges against suspended Fiji Corrections Service Commissioner Sevuloni Naucukidi as the complainant in this matter is willing to reconcile.
Naucukidi was charged with criminal intimidation following an alleged incident in July 2025 where he allegedly threatened a support staff member.
DPP principal legal officer Sadaf Shameem informed the Suva Magistrate today that the complainant in this matter is willing to reconcile.
However, the Magistrate told the state that this is not a reconcilable matter and that they need to file proper application.
Defense lawyer Barbara Malimali told the court that they welcome the idea of reconciliation.
Naudukidi’s trial was set to begin this morning. The matter will be called again tomorrow.
