The Suva High Court will decide on bail for the man accused of setting fire to the QVS Club House in Suva in June this year on 6th January, after receiving his psychiatric evaluation report.
Nigel Yogesh Singh is charged with one count of arson.
The counsel for the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions told the court that they have not received the psychiatric evaluation report as yet.
While seated in the dock, Singh interjected, asking how long the process would take, saying he has been waiting for a long time.
He told Justice Dane Tuiqereqere that he does not have a mental illness.
Justice Tuiqereqere has ordered St Giles Hospital to provide the psychiatric report by 2nd January, after which he will consider the bail application.
Singh again interjected, stating he has no family in Fiji to act as sureties as they are overseas, and that he is homeless and begs on the streets.
Justice Tuiqereqere directed Legal Aid counsel Tobia Ravuniwa to speak with Singh regarding his bail application.
A frustrated Singh again interjected, saying the Legal Aid Commission cannot assist him and that different people keep being assigned to his case.
Justice Tuiqereqere stressed that he will make a ruling on 6th January after receiving the psychiatric evaluation report.
