The houses of Fiji Times editor Netani Rika and pro-democracy movement member Colonel Saikusa Raivoce have been firebombed by a group of masked men in the early hours of Sunday morning. It's the third time in as many weeks that property owned by Mr Rika has been attacked. The interim Government accuses the paper of negative reporting of its policies.
