Ask FICAC - PM

Fijian national, Charlie Charters has been arrested by FICAC and is now being brought to Suva.

Charters had earlier contacted us saying that he is being held at immigration at Nadi International Airport because of a FICAC flag on his file.

Charters said he was waiting to be interviewed by the duty supervisor.

Charters, a 57-year-old sports marketing expert, has Fiji and UK citizenship and arrived on Sunday to renew his Fiji passport.

He is scheduled to fly to Sydney on tonight's FJ915 flight.

Charters has written extensively about the family and friends connections between FICAC and the Fiji Sports Council relying on publicly available documents and whistleblower testimony.

We are trying to speak to FICAC and the Immigration Department.

We have sent questions to Acting FICAC Commissioner, Lavi Rokoika, Immigration Minister, Viliame Naupoto and Prime Minister, Sitiveni Rabuka.

Rabuka has told us to ask FICAC as they are independent and act independently.

Stay with us for developments.
