Twelve men will front the Nausori Magistrates Court today charged with their alleged involvement in the violent attack against a family in Nakelo in Tailevu on Monday night.

Police confirm the 12 men have been charged with various offences including Malicious Act, Assault Causing Actual Bodily Harm, Damaging Property and Criminal Trespass.

A video of the incident is being widely circulated on social media.

It shows a group of more than 20 men allegedly entering the bottom flat of a two-storey house and assaulting some of the occupants.

Some of the men in the house can be heard screaming for help while a woman can be heard screaming for her baby.

The video shows a broken down door, shattered glass on the floor and other parts of the house trashed.
