Amenoni Nasilasila and Nacanieli Labalaba

The Fiji Women's Crisis Centre says it is once again rugby over rape as convicted rapists Amenoni Nasilasila and Nacanieli Labalaba are playing in the Marist 7s.

They say it is appalling that there is still no response from the authorities despite the condemnation from the Minister for Women Rosy Akbar and various other organisations.

The FWCC says this is the fifth time they are calling them out.

Nasilasila was convicted for the rape of a 24-year-old woman and jailed for 8 years in 2019 while Labalaba was sentenced to 11 years, nine months imprisonment in 2019 for the gang rape and assault of a woman.
