The Acting Director says as they strive for excellence to improve in the field, they must not lose sight of humanity and diverse people who love this country and call it home as those are the hallmarks of a good prosecutor.
The ODPP continues to provide Basic and Advanced Prosecution courses to police and statutory prosecutors to improve the standard of prosecution in Fiji.
The course was facilitated by Assistant DPP Pauline Madanavosa who was assisted by other ODPP prosecutors.
These police officers attended the four-week ODPP Basic Prosecution Course which was designed to equip officers with the basic prosecutorial and advocacy skills.
