Military calls off hunt for bloggers

1034 FJT
Tuesday, May 22, 2007

Update: 10.34am THE military has decided it will stop hunting for the anti-military bloggers and stop its attempts at shutting down blog spots.

Colonel Pita Driti said they were no longer bothered or concerned by the blogs and had decided to ignore them.

However, he did say that if bloggers were eventually found they would be taken to the camp to be questioned.

The military was working with FINTEL last week in trying to shut down several of the anti-military blogs.

The action of the military has been condemned by international bloggers who have offered assistance to Fiji bloggers.

New Zealand bloggers called on their government to condemn in the strongest possible manner the action of the military.
