The military has clarified that the members of the RFMF have not received any pay increments since 2007 as claimed by some critics.
RFMF spokesperson, Major Neumi Leweni said the soldiers also suffered the 5 percent paycut from March 2007 and they did not receive any special treatment.
Major Leweni said there was nothing sinister when the RFMF bust its budget by 45 million dollars in the year 2007.
He has also hit out at the former Prime Minister and SDL Leader, Laisenia Qarase and National Federation Party General Secretary, Pramod Rae for criticising the budget bust, saying that they have nothing positive to say.
Meanwhile former Prime Minister and SDL Leader, Laisenia Qarase maintains that the 45 million over-expenditure is unjustified.
