Fiji Times Publisher Hank Arts will not take the stand in the Fiji Times sedition trial.
Fiji Times lawyer, Wylie Clarke has informed court, after approaching Arts, that Arts wishes to exercise his right to remain silent.
Clarke said Fiji Times Limited will produce two witnesses.
Fiji Times Limited, Hank Arts and Josaia Waqabaca have pleaded not guilty to sedition while Fred Wesley and Anare Ravula have pleaded not guilty to aiding and abetting sedition.
It is alleged that Fiji Times printed the Nai Lalakai newspaper which contained an article which had content with a seditious intention to promote feelings of ill will and hostility between classes of the population.
