Acting Prime Minister and Acting Local Government Minister, Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum is yet to comment on whether any further action will be taken against sacked Ba Special Administrator, Arun Prasad.
Fijivillage has sent questions to Sayed-Khaiyum as he said in a statement yesterday that Arun Prasad has allegedly abused his position for personal gain and has often and repeatedly acted in a manner unbecoming of a public officer.
Sayed-Khaiyum intervened last week on behalf of the people living in the Clopcott squatter settlement in Ba.
He said people were victims of Prasad's alleged aggressive threats to illegally cut off their water and electricity and were not properly consulted regarding the resettlement of the squatters in the area.
The Attorney General also said it has emerged that Prasad obtained waivers and discounts on rates he and his family owed for properties.
Meanwhile Prasad said he will be taking the matter further.
Prasad said he was not involved in the decision making process of the waivers and discounts on his family properties.
He also said that only one person was given a threatening letter by the Council to cut off his water and electricity supply for causing trouble.
