MURDER, MILITARY AND MOURNING: Was the notorious drug lord Jone Vakarisi allegedly murdered at RFMF camp while military escorted their former Commander Ratu Epeli Nailatikau for burial on chiefly Bau Island?

UPDATE, RFMF: 'Vakarisi experienced medical crisis, and passed away.'

The family of Varisi gathered outside Queen Elizabeth Barracks as they await further information.

​In pursuit of the CRW soldiers' Murderer. It took me nearly twenty-five years of dogged effort, beginning when the late Commissioner of Police, Andrew Hughes, gave me the ‘Murder Files’, to trace the soldier who was the principal suspect.

​He is today roaming freely on the chiefly island of BAU, and one day I will reveal his identity.

​​He is protected by prominent chiefs, some vocal in the GCC.

Kalounivale Junior

*One of the CRW soldiers, Selesitino Kalounivale, was taken to Frank Bainimarama at the Naval Base (where he had fled during the mutiny) who instructed his soldiers to take Kalounivale to Central Police Station. He was later taken out of CPS by soldiers and battered to death; Kalounivale had taken NO part in the mutiny; he was home attending to his sick child on mutiny day.
