Retired Fiji Link CEO Shaenaz Voss who is charged with a count of failure to comply with the requirements of the operator’s airline security programme has been allowed by the Nausori Magistrates Court visit her terminally ill brother.

Voss is charged in relation to unlawful carriage of firearms on board a flight from Nausori to Labasa Airport on 8th October, 2018.

She pleaded not guilty to the charge.

This case is in relation to the bodyguards of the former Attorney General, Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum allegedly carrying firearms on the Fiji Link flight.

According to the particulars in her charge sheet, Voss on the 8th of October in 2018 at Nausori Airport, being the Chief Executive Officer of Fiji Link allegedly failed to comply with the requirements of Fiji Link Operation Airline Security programme on board domestic Flight FJ32.

The court was told that Voss wants to travel this Saturday.

She applied for a variation to her bail conditions yesterday.

The court says she can go to London to visit her brother who has suffered a stroke and also suffers from a heart condition.

Voss is to deposit $5,000 as personal surety and surrender her passport upon her return.

The Magistrate says as an added precaution, a surety, Voss’ other brother is to surrender his travel documents as well and get it back when Voss returns. The matter will be called in the Nausori Magistrates Court on the 7th of August.
