Lemalu Herman Retzlaff said he was satisfied the police have enough evidence to charge Fepulea'i with causing injuries and being armed with a dangerous weapon
The police investigation was the result of a complaint filed by a night watchman at the Ministry of Justice and Courts after an alleged assault by Fepulea'i.
The incident allegedly took place during the end of year function for judges in December.
Police said the complainant may have been drinking at the function angering the president.
