Last update: 3 hours ago

Samoa Police Probe Transnational Murder: Two Samoan nationals, Steve Tofa and Joseph Vaa, are detained in Vietnam after confessing on TV to the killing of Sydney gang figure Lorenzo Lemalu Tovia in Ho Chi Minh City, prompting Samoa Police to open a “first of its kind” investigation and coordinate with regional partners. Airport Arrests and New Wanted Notice: Police also removed a local businessman from an Air New Zealand flight at Faleolo before departure to Auckland, while issuing a public “wanted for questioning” notice for Conner Strickert, linked to the Vietnam case. Ports Leadership Change: Cabinet appointed Capt. Ti’amamana Foetutasi Fa’amausili as CEO of the Samoa Ports Authority for three years, bringing decades of maritime and navigation experience. Court Clears Justice Minister Candidate: District Court dismissed all electoral charges against Minister of Justice & Court Administration candidate Fesolai Tusiupu Tuigamala, citing weak and unreliable prosecution evidence. USP Graduation in Apia: King Tupou VI will preside over USP’s graduation at the Apia Football Complex on Friday, as the university council reviews finances and renewal plans. Plastic Fight at Coca-Cola AGM: Samoan community leaders and environmental advocates protested outside Coca-Cola Europacific Partners’ AGM, urging an end to single-use plastic and a return to reusable packaging.
