The Fiji Police Force has acknowledged that 12 officers were present during a raid involving Kinoya resident Sakiasi Ose Radravu, who his family claims was severely beaten, resulting in his death.

His family alleges that on the night of 23 April, the 32-year-old was "tortured" in his home by both police and military officers - and beaten within an inch of his life.

He died five days ago, on 4 June, with police stating that the autopsy report shows the cause of his demise was "a pre-existing medical condition".
