FTUC PRESIDENT DENIED OVERSEAS TRAVEL
Fiji Trades Union Congress president Daniel Urai’s application to have his bail conditions varied to allow him to travel for a conference in the United Kingdom was today turned down by the Magistrates Court in Suva.
The reasons given by the magistrate was that Mr Urai could be replaced by another union member to travel overseas and that he was charged with a serious offence and he did not inform the court if he was the only authorised person who can travel to the conference.
The court has suspended his curfew hours but he will have to notify the Director of Public Prosecution office if he intends to travel to Fiji's outer islands. The case has been adjourned to 17 May 2012.
