It is an appalling observation that
despite criticism after criticism by various religious, social and media
organizations of the ineffective, inefficient, corrupt and even racist Fiji
Police and Judicial system, the leaders of these publicly financed entities are
still sitting in their positions.
This raises questions whether the
interim government has any interest in genuinely combating crime in the country
at all. Because if they were then the sacking of these chosen few would be the
first item on their list of “things to do”.
It is becoming obvious that government
bodies are actually allowing corruption, racist and mutinous criminals to go
free. Racism and corruption in the police and judicial system shine with the
high level of unsuccessful prosecutions of criminal suspects.
Virtually not a single genuine suspect
has been legitimately disciplined for the recent crimes of racism, mutiny,
corruption or murder. No wonder criminals are so confident they can get away
with anything. They seem to know that the police and justice system of Fiji
would provide protection for them, if they were caught.
While the NLTB and GCC have always been
active motivators within this arena, the Chief Justice has also blown his cover.
It is sad that flopped leaders in their
futile efforts to assist our underprivileged indigenous have now adapted to
offering “free crime” |
