"I was accused of coup plot," reveals Edwards

Tonga's former Minister of Police, Clive Edwards, claimed he was sacked in August last year after being accused by the King's sons of plotting a coup and leading rebel ministers against their policies. "When Tupouto'a turned around and said ‘There are certain ministers here that I have received reports who are attempting to carry out a coup,’ I laughed, because no such information had come before me from the Special Branch," said Clive Edwards.
