The Pacific Freedom Forum says the search warrant executed at the Fiji Times newspaper last week, could further erode the right to free expression in Fiji.

The Police were seeking the employment contracts of three staff members charged with sedition, following the publication of an inflammatory letter last year.

The chair of the Forum, Monica Miller says the police tactics seem heavy handed.
