Murder defendant Ratu Peceli Rosotokaicake Rokoravolo has sought additional time from the High Court in Lautoka to prepare his bail application. During a hearing on Tuesday, Mr. Rokoravolo, who is representing himself, appeared before Justice Aruna Aluthge. He is facing a single murder charge in connection with the death of Dr. Isireli Biumaitotoya, which took place in Nadi last year.
Justice Aluthge has adjourned the proceedings until February 3, during which time Mr. Rokoravolo will remain in custody. The case has garnered significant attention given its gravity and the circumstances involved. The forthcoming hearing is anticipated to shed further light on the developments as Mr. Rokoravolo works on his defense strategy. As the process unfolds, the legal community and the public alike will be closely monitoring the proceedings for updates on this serious matter.
