Fiji v Tonga

The “rescue” of Lieutenant-Colonel Ratu Tevita Uluilakeba Mara by is fascinating, as are the demands of the Commodore that he be returned. You would think he would be glad to have a dissident out of the country.

Mara is the son of the founding Prime , Ratu Sir Kamisese Mara. He was very close to the Commodore and it is not known what has led to him to be charged with , which led to him fleeing.

What I find most interesting is the suggestion that Mara was helped to flee by his brother-in- Ratu Epeli Nailatikau. Nailatikau is the current Pesident of Fiji and nominally Commander-in-Chief. Is it possible the President could move against the Commodore?
