Suspended Computer Science teacher Kishore Kumar has claimed that a parliamentarian paid him more than $9,000 in cash and food vouchers to put up posts about other political parties and politicians.

Kumar also claimed that the same politician had told him that he will pay him $75,000 if he posts the alleged porn video of NFP MP Lenora Qereqeretabua on his Kishore Kumar Publications Facebook page.

When questioned by fijivillage on who is the parliamentarian that is telling him to publicly distribute an alleged porn video and paying him to personally attack other politicians, Kumar said he cannot reveal the person’s name.

When asked if he has revealed the name to Police investigators, Kumar said Police have not asked him that question.

Kumar says the parliamentarian had offered him a large amount of money for making the video public but he did not do it as it is against his religion.

He further says he was used and is now being disowned by the parliamentarian.

Kumar says the evidence that was with him is now with the CID Office and he is waiting for the result of their investigation.

He was taken in and questioned last Tuesday at the CID Headquarters in Suva and was released 48 hours later.

When questioned by fijivillage on whether Police are also looking at the claim that a parliamentarian was behind this, Police spokesperson, Ana Naisoro said the investigation is ongoing.
