Namada villager Semi Kunavatu and his two cousins were about to leave home for a family function when they were allegedly assaulted by a group of Naitasiri rugby fans over the weekend.
“We heard rowdy cheers as a bus approached the village and then suddenly a group of men were at our door,” he said.
Mr Kunavatu said he later found out the reason the fans accosted them was because two young boys from Namada had thrown soapy water at the bus because of their rowdiness.
