A Tongan man has pleaded guilty to trying to bribe a police officer with chicken and corned beef.
56-year-old Fili Ta'ai was arrested on drugs charges last July.
While in custody, he offered a police officer a box of chicken, 3 kilograms of corned beef, and three plastic bags of sweet potatoes for his release.
The officer immediately reported the bribery attempt to his superiors, resulting in a charge.
Matangi Tonga reports Ta'ai will be sentenced on the 25th of June.
