In the Solomon Islands, capital, Honiara, three men have faced a court bail hearing over a machete attack on a New Zealand RAMSI officer earlier this month. The three men surrendered to police in the Guadalcanal village of Avu Avu, and police believe that their close consultation with community leaders played a large part in the men turning themselves in. The deputy premier of Guadalcanal, Bradley Tovosia, journeyed with the men to Honiara to assist in their court appearance. He spoke to Adam Connors from the courthouse, where he translated some of the men’s answers.
