Is it copy cat?
Seqaqa police station was taken over at 7 tonight.
A call to the station a few minutes ago, our reporter Virisila Buadromo was
informed by a man who answered the phone that he and 39
others had taken control of the station. He told her that they have 5 police
officers detained in the Bure drinking grog with their captors.
He also told Virisila that if she wanted more information that she was to contact
former SVT parliamentarian and information minister Ratu
Jo Dimuri.
The military are investigating.
