AG lodges complaint against FRCA

Update: 6:35PM ATTORNEY-GENERAL and Finance Minister Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum has lodged a complaint with the Fiji Independent Commission Against Corruption in respect of some operational aspects of Fiji Revenue and Customs Authority.

The complaint was lodged on Friday.

In a press conference this afternoon, Mr Sayed-Khaiyum said FICAC subsequently sent out an investigation team to FRCA on Friday afternoon to seize some documents and computers.

“If you steal from the people of Fiji, if you take bribes, give bribes and conspire to cover it up, then you are going to be brought before the law,” he said.

Mr Sayed-Khaiyum said the complaint was precipitated by the fact that they were given access to an email.

The email was said to have been sent by a senior officer of FRCA.
