Trade Unionist, Felix Anthony.

The Director of Public Prosecutions, Mr Christopher Pryde, (DPP) has decided that no charges will be laid against Trade Unionist, Felix Anthony.

Mr Anthony was arrested by police and interviewed under caution on 24th January 2018 in regard to comments he allegedly made in a speech to a crowd of people at the Nadi District School after a march through Nadi town in support of striking Air Terminal Services workers on 13th January 2018.

The police file was sent to the DPP for an assessment of the evidence and a decision on whether any charges should be laid.

The DPP stated that “following a review of the police docket and the evidence, it is our opinion that the alleged comments do not constitute any offence that would support criminal charges against Mr Anthony and therefore the docket has been returned to police.”
