Connacht and Muliaina to 'review situation internally'

Connacht have revealed that they will meet with Mils Muliaina, who was arrested in the UK on Friday night, and review the current situation internally.

The former New Zealand full-back was detained by Gloucesteshire police at Kingsholm stadium, following Connacht's match against Gloucester in the Challenge Cup.

The arrest was made in connection with an alleged incident in Cardiff last month.

The 34-year-old, who is set to leave for Italian side Zebre at the end of this season, has since been released on bail and Connacht confirmed that they will meet with the player in the coming days.

In a statement, the province said: "Connacht Rugby can confirm that Mils Muliaina was released on bail, without charge, on Saturday April 4th. South Wales Police are continuing their investigating into an alleged incident in Cardiff last month.

"Muliaina returned to Galway on Sunday April 5th having cooperated fully with police investigations. He denies any wrong doing and will meet with Connacht Rugby officials in the coming days to review the situation internally.

"As this remains a legal matter, Connacht Rugby can provide no further comment at this time."
