Police have charged five male students following a brawl at the Nuku’alofa bus station on Wednesday.

A Police spokesperson said today the accused included three students from Tonga College and two from Liahona High School.

They have been charged with disorderly behaviour and causing disturbance in a public area.

They have been released on bail yesterday from Police custody and were expected to appear in court next week.

Photos taken at the scene and uploaded to Facebook this week met with disapproval.

Most commenters criticised the brawl and said this was nothing but too much “nonsense” and “show off”.
