Fiji government suspends public prosecutor for alleged misbehaviour

Fiji's president suspended the Pacific island nation's public prosecutor on Thursday and said a tribunal would be appointed to investigate him for alleged misbehaviour.

The move came on the same day that prosecutor Christopher Pryde's office announced that police had asked it to consider suspected charges against the prime minister, former prime minister, former police chief and former attorney general.

Reuters could not reach Pryde, who has held the role of Director of Public Prosecutions for 11 years, for comment, and his office did not respond to a request for comment on Thursday evening.
