Occupational Health and Safety Inspector, Ashneel Nath who is charged with one count of manslaughter arising from a breach of duty in relation to the death of a 21-year-old woman who fell from a ferris wheel in Suva in June 2023, has been granted bail.

Nath appeared before Suva Magistrate Shageeth Somaratne this afternoon.

The case will be called again on the 21st of November in the Suva High Court.
