Defense Counsel questions report
In cross examination, Defense Counsel Iqbal Khan questioned the Head of the Military Intelligence Unit, Major Isireli Narawa, as to how accurate and credible the information being brought to him by Lance Corporal Peniasi Kuli really was.
In going over the report, Khan asked Narawa if the information was credible because two issues highlighted in the report said otherwise.
Khan stated that the report said that Ballu Khan had the missing weapons and ammunition, however no weapons were found and also Kuli had stated that Apisai Tora would be bringing the guns and ammunition however this also never happened.
Narawa replied that he trusted his source and all information given to him.
Khan also questioned Narawa as to why the fourteenth report compiled by Sergeant Waqa on the alleged meetings with the Qaranivalu were never given to the Police when he gave his statement on the 3rd of November 2007.
Khan asked Narawa why he only gave his Power Point presentation as this was only a summarised version of the fourteen reports given by Sergeant Waqa on the alleged meeting, to which Narawa replied that, at that time, the Police only asked for the Power Point presentation.
Khan then asked Narawa why the fourteen detailed reports were given later on the 28th of August 2008 and not given when he gave his first statement. Narawa maintained that the Police just asked for the Power Point presentation.
The case continues.
