Charters writes from FICAC custody on who benefits from his prosecution

Charters writes from FICAC custody on who benefits from his prosecution

Fijian national, Charlie Charters says in a letter written from FICAC custody that he was approached by whistleblower(s) with the information that FICAC had hired the daughter of the Fiji Sports Council CEO – just days after FICAC had cleared the same CEO of converting a public sponsorship for private benefit.

The letter by Charters says at Nadi International Airport on Saturday, he was offered a deal – tell FICAC about the whistleblower(s) and he can get on his flight.

Charters says FICAC campaigns relentlessly for public and private bodies to set up whistleblower policies but FICAC itself has no such whistleblower pro policy.

He says FICAC acts like Moses on top of the mountain but they ain't Moses.

Charters asks who investigates the investigators and how can you expect Fiji to unsee things that are so obvious to see.

He says family and friends being preferred by a taxpayer-funded law enforcement agency with almost limitless powers to punish is wrong however they try to dress up the charges. 

Charters asks who benefits from his prosecution.
