Fiji Trades Union Congress president Daniel Urai has been charged with urging political violence and inciting antagonism against the Fiji Government.
Police have confirmed in the last hour that the charges Urai faces also relate to any person urging others to overthrow by force or violence, the Government of Fiji or the lawful authority of the Government of Fiji.
Urai was taken in for questioning last Monday after returning from Australia.
Police confirmed that Urai will appear in the Suva Magistrates Court today.
Meanwhile, the general secretary of the Fiji Trades Union Congress Felix Anthony was taken in for questioning in relation to similar investigations last Friday.
Assistant Police Commissioner Henry Brown is expected to comment later on whether Anthony is still being questioned.
ACP Brown had earlier said that more people are expected to be taken in for questioning in relation to this ongoing investigation.
