Investigations into former CEO of FSC continuing - FICAC

Investigations into former CEO of FSC continuing - FICAC

FICAC says the investigations into the case against former Chief Executive Officer of the Fiji Sugar Corporation, Abdul Khan are continuing.

The Commission reiterates that the ongoing investigations against Khan were consequent to an intelligence report received by FICAC from the Fiji Intelligence Unit and not from a complaint made by FSC.

They say as it is an ongoing investigation and divulging any finer details of the case may jeopardize the outcome of the investigation.

FICAC says in the best interest and to protect the integrity of the investigation, the Commission will refrain from making any remarks publicly on the case until the conclusion of the case.

However, FICAC further says they have recently received a complaint from the Ministry of Multi-Ethnic Affairs and Sugar Industry about an alleged abuse of office by the FSC Board concerning the Tropical Cyclone Winston Insurance Claim in 2016.

FICAC says this is pending legal assessment and once it is endorsed for investigation, their team of investigators will conduct its investigation before further decisions are made, depending on the findings of the investigators.
