Grace Road Fiji President Daniel Kim

The Lautoka High Court has granted an interim stay for Grace Road Fiji President Daniel Kim and three others until the 15th of next month when it rules in a constitutional redress matter.

This means they cannot be deported at least until the 15th.

A Habeas Corpus application filed by Kim’s counsel was also struck out by the Lautoka High Court as well.

A Writ of Habeas Corpus protects against unlawful and indefinite imprisonment.

Kim remains in immigration custody as he has been declared a prohibited immigrant making his presence in Fiji unlawful after the South Korean Government nullified his passport.

The court also dealt with a judicial review matter regarding Kim where the court also heard an application for stay where the ruling will be delivered on Wednesday.

Kim is represented by Kings Counsel Simon Ower, Ronald Gordan, Nilesh Prasad and Vasu Pillay while Solicitor General, Ropate Lomavatu is representing the State.
