Judge Justice Salesi Temo has further remanded Hira Lal the father of the accused Sanjay Lal upon allegations that he interfered with a prosecution witness.
Sanjay lal with Wame Baleimakogai, Napolioni Leiloma and serving prisoner Luke Sorovakatini are charged for the alleged rape of two women on the 9th of October 2016 in Tailevu.
Justice Temo had earlier stated that the courts time was wasted when the second victim failed to appear in court on allegations that she was bribed by Hira Lal of $500 not to attend court.
The court gave an option to the second victim on whether she wanted to be remanded or not and the victim has chosen to be remanded.
Baleimakogai and Leiloma are charged with three counts of rape, Sorovakatini are charged with one count of rape while Lal is charged with a count each of rape and assault with intent to rape.
The first victim will continue giving evidence today.
