The Fijian Elections Office has referred one person and a Facebook user to FICAC.

Supervisor of Elections Mohammed Saneem says Awadh Narayan Sharma of the National Federation Party has been referred to FICAC for breach of 116 (4) of the Electoral Act.

Saneem says this is in relation to a complaint by a person against Sharma in relation to a comment that he targets a particular COMMUNITY.

He adds they will leave it for FICAC to investigate and deal with it.

The SOE says they have also referred a Facebook user to FICAC for publishing the wrong number of a candidate and misinforming voters.

Saneem adds they cannot have people misinforming the public on candidates numbers.

Meanwhile, we have asked NFP for a response if Sharma is part of NFP, they are yet to respond.
