Ousted Prime Minister, Laisenia Qarase is still being questioned at the Fiji Independent Commission Against Corruption headquarters in Suva.
Qarase was first taken in on Saturday and questioned until 5pm. He was then called in yesterday but stayed only for about half an hour as he requested for some time to go and see his wife, Leba who is admitted in hospital.
The SDL Leader was called in again at about 8:30 this morning and that interrogation process is still underway according to FICAC spokesperson, Maraia Vavaitamana.
Qarase is being questioned for the alleged deals he made in the conversion of the 20 million dollar loan for the purchase of Fijian Holdings shares to a grant.
He also confirmed to us earlier today that the FICAC officers are questioning him on the companies who benefitted from the 20 million dollar grant.
