Ousted Prime Minister Laisenia Qarase disagrees with Interim Prime Minister Commodore Bainimarama that they are making personal attacks against Mahendra Chaudhry.
Following the statement by Bainimarama to Village News that the call for action against Chaudhry is to weaken the interim government, Qarase said all the SDL and others want is that the law applied equally to everyone.
Qarase also said that the criticisms leveled against Chaudhry are not based on his race.
Interim Prime Minister Commodore Frank Bainimarama believes that there are several attacks against Interim Finance Minister Mahendra Chaudhry to weaken the interim government.
Bainimarama said he knows that a lot of Fijians do not like Chaudhry and even if a child trips and falls down in America or there is darkness in the world these critics will always blame everything on Chaudhry.
When questioned on whether he will take any action in relation to the allegations leveled against his Interim Finance Minister, Commodore Bainimarama said Chaudhry has written to him to take the necessary action he sees as fit and the Interim Prime Minister will decide on that action in due course.
However, Bainimarama maintains that in his view all these things are being done to weaken the interim government and to create obstacles for them. He said this poison is being spread by some politicians, chiefs and church pastors.
