The Suva Magistrates Court has today vacated the hearing for Jone Vakarisi’s case.

The hearing was supposed to start this morning but police officers did not present him in court on time.

Vakarisi’s counsel Aman Ravindra Singh was also not present but the four prosecution witnesses were in court.

Jone Vakarisi and eight others have been charged with failing to produce driving license, failing to obey traffic direction, dangerous driving, and criminal intimidation, damaging property, resisting arrest and driving a motor vehicle without license.

The incident happened near the Mead Road Housing complex in Nabua, Suva last August.

It’s alleged that the suspects attacked three police constables and a special constable who were on patrol in Nabua.

The hearing will start this Thursday.
