Teen Remanded On Drug Charge
A 19-year-old was remanded in custody by the Suva Magistrates Court after he appeared on a drug related charge.
Jonacani Nayavusoata is charged with one count of possession of illicit drugs.
He appeared before Magistrate Liyanage Wickramasekara.
On June 15, 2018, without lawful authority he was found to have allegedly possessed 34.3 grams of Cannabis Sativa in Makoi.
Police Prosecutor Constable Setareki Mocevakaca served the accused with full phase disclosures.
He also objected to Nayavusoata’s bail and the accused waived his right to counsel by opting to represent himself in his case.
The accused was ordered to file a formal bail application in the Nasinu Magistrates Court.
The case will be called again in Nasinu on July 3, 2018.
