PM says RFMF understands very well that they can work with Police in supporting fight against drugs
Prime Minister, Sitiveni Rabuka and Brigadier General Manoa Gadai

Prime Minister, Sitiveni Rabuka says the military understands very well that they can work with the Police in supporting the fight against drugs.

Rabuka made this clear after comments by Commander of the Joint Task Force Command at Blackrock Camp in Nadi, Brigadier General Manoa Gadai where he offered to assist or even lead the Inter-Agency Joint Counter Drugs Operation from the Blackrock Camp.

While replying to emails being circulated about the screenshots, Brigadier General Gadai asked if this is actually happening and that it is shocking indeed.


He then said that he is happy to assist or even lead the operation from the Blackrock Camp.

Brigadier General Gadai went on to say that after all there is a war against drugs in Fiji, as highlighted by our parliamentarians in Suva late last year.

He also said that there should be a clear and unambiguous drug law passed in Parliament.

While responding to questions by fijivillage News, Rabuka says he prefers to have a look at the comments made by Gadai and that we have to verify the reported incidents that he has made comments on.

However Rabuka says there is a clear understanding between the Ministers for Defence and Policing, and he does not have any doubt that the operational heads of the policing and military arms can cooperate very well in their joint operations. 

He adds the allegations against the Police officers have to be proven and these also have to be reported.

Rabuka stresses that no one is guilty until proven.
