FICAC has sought more time to file further information in the case of the suspended Director Intelligence, Compliance and Investigations of the Fiji Revenue and Customs Service, Shameem Khan.

Khan is charged with a count each of Abuse of Office and General Dishonesty Causing a Loss.

Khan had earlier pleaded not guilty to his charges.

The matter has been adjourned to the 28th of next month and Khan’s bail has been extended.

He allegedly prepared an investigation report with false contents which allowed this loss to occur.
