SUVA (Radio NZ International/Pacific Media Watch): A Fiji Times journalist has been detained by the military over a report on the country’s sugar industry.
Emergency regulations allowing reporters to be questioned were to be cancelled when the interim regime’s media decree was imposed in June last year, but remain in place.
Felix Chaudhry is believed to be the first detainee in 2011.
