Kamikamica's lawyer files application for a permanent stay on his charges in the High Court

Member of Parliament, Manoa Kamikamica's lawyer, Wylie Clarke has filed an application for a permanent stay on his charges in the High Court.

The date on when the matter will be called in the High Court, is not known at this stage.

Clarke had earlier said in the Magistrates Court that the evidence in the case is completely underwhelming and none of the evidence they have seen are close to substantiating the charges laid by FICAC.

He said they have raised concerns about why these charges have been brought in the first place because a properly directed prosecution would not do that.

Kamikamica is charged with one count of perjury and one count of giving false information to a public servant.

It is alleged that between 1st December 2024 and 31st March 2025 in Suva, Kamikamica knowingly made a false statement under oath, claiming that he had nothing to do with the appointment of the FICAC Commissioner.

It is alleged that Kamikamica provided the same false information to the Commissioner of Inquiry (COI).
