It is alleged that Vosanibola breached the Parliamentary Remuneration Act of 2014 when he claimed travel and accommodation allowances, he was not entitled to.
The court has also extended bail for the former MP.
The matter has been adjourned to August 14th.
Meanwhile, according to FICAC it had filed its submission for the no case to answer ruling.
It says the submission had been filed a week earlier on Wednesday 31 July 2024.
The FICAC Senior State Counsel was informed by the Court clerk that the Prosecution’s submission was filed and was in the file but it was yet to be released to the Prosecution.
