Fijilive journalist released with a warning

Another journalist in Fiji was detained this afternoon and has been released with a warning.

Kavai Damu, from the web-based news service, Fijilive, was taken in for questioning after he wrote a story against the devaluation of the Fiji dollar.

He says he was escorted out of the newsroom by a police officer and a person from the Ministry of Information.

He says they let him go home with a warning.

A total of eight journalists have been detained and released so far.
