The DPP is appealing against the acquittal of individuals in relation to the Fiji Times sedition case.

In this matter, letter writer Josaia Waqabaca, Nai Lalakai editor Anare Ravula, Fiji Times Editor in- Chief Fred Wesley, Fiji Times Publisher Hank Arts and The Fiji Times were acquitted of sedition and aiding and abetting charges in May last year.

The matter was called before the Court of Appeals this morning.

Judge Justice Suresh Chandra has ordered that necessary steps be taken under the practice direction of court so the case can be taken forward.

The DPP is appealing on the grounds that the court made several errors in the interpretation of the law.

Director of Public Prosecutions is represented by Assistant DPP Lee Burney.
