John Makatoa Lomu, the former All Black star's younger brother, appeared at the Manukau District Court on Friday where his court ordered name suppression lapsed. The 46-year-old, together with Silila Vaivai, face charges of importing and possessing methamphetamine. Lomu declined to talk to Stuff as he left Court and hid his face with his black hoodie. In 2019, John Lomu told Niu FM that Jonah got him his first car when he was still in school. Jonah Lomu, aged 40, died from a heart attack in November 2015 following a long struggle with kidney failure.
