Senior Barrister Janet Mason had earlier confirmed that they have again written to the JSC asking for Malimali’s suspension so the work of the commission can continue without disruption.

FBC News understands that the meeting could have also been possibly about Director of Public Prosecution, Christopher Pryde who is yet to resume his duties.
