The chair of the Fiji parliament's Foreign Affairs Committee says it is looking into allegations of torture made by a Lautoka lawyer.
Aman Ravindra-Singh has claimed that he and his associates have been threatened and people close to him attacked because he is acting for people who have been accused of sedition.
He says he believes security forces were behind the attacks.
FBC News reports the committee chair, Netani Rika, as saying it would look into the allegations and seek submissions from those who claim to have been tortured.
Fiji police say they are yet to receive a formal complaint from Mr Ravindra-Singh.
