Fijileaks Editor: We will reveal the donors soon who are now 'sleeping in bed' with the Fijifirst Party. The recent FICAC file supplements FIRCA file that was leaked to Victor Lal which had resulted in a Fiji Sun front page story on 12 February 2008: 'SDL company raised $1.7m - No tax paid on funds raised to fight 2006 election' (all of Lal's writings have been removed from the paper's archive by the current pro-regime propagandists on the SUN); the Victor Lal investigation had revealed how the then interim Finance Minister Mahendra Chaudhry had ordered FIRCA to carry out an audit of SDL's company, the Duavata Initiative Ltd, with plans for prosecution; FICAC file details the list of donors and their financial contributions

Fijileaks Editor: It seems Chaudhry was not able to press-gang FICAC to proceed after he had presented FIRCA findings to Cabinet on 16 January 2008, for the following month, on 24 February 2008, Victor Lal had revealed Chaudhry's own secret $2million from Haryana that he
(Chaudhry) was hiding in Australia

PUNCH drunk with power derived from the barrel of the gun in 2006
THIS latest disclosure in the Fiji High Court is just one of many cases Chaudhry was ordering FIRCA to carry out, many against his perceived political opponents who were accused of supporting the 2000 coup:

FICAC witness says Mahendra Chaudhry directed investigation against payment of Peni Mau
Monday, 10/11/2014
, Fijivillage News:

A former internal auditor of Finance Ministry told the Suva High Court today that former Finance Minister Mahendra Chaudhry had directed a Special Investigation against the final payment of former Managing Director of Post Fiji Limited Peni Mau in 2007.

Evangeleen Talei is the final witness for FICAC in this trial.

Talei told the court that in March 2007 she joined an audit team of eight lead by their Director Internal Audit to do the special investigation.

Talei said they spoke to Acting General Manager Dhirendra Pratap and other staff of the Accounts section.

Talei added they looked at the payment voucher to determine the calculation of the payment of $210,666.67 as there was a difference of $24,000 as gratuity payment.

She said they were not able to reconcile the figures and asked for Peni Mau’s contract.

She said they went through the contract and nothing was mentioned about a gratuity payment.

She added they went back to Dhirendra Pratap where they were given a letter written by Mahendra Patel after their investigation was about to end on 19th April 2007, stating that Peni Mau’s contract has been extended.

She added according to the letter Mau was paid two years four months’ salary and the gratuity payment.

Talei mentioned that they also went through the board minutes of 8th March 2007 where they were no resolutions passed for Mau’s payment.

She added they submitted their investigation report to the former minister on 1st June 2007.

Earlier today, another FICAC witness and former board member of Post Fiji Limited, Lute Powell told the High Court that she overheard Mahendra Patel having informal discussions on the extension of Mau’s contract and saying something about the Higher Salaries Commission during a board meeting. Powell agreed with defence lawyer, Hamendra Nagin that Mau’s contract was extended till 2009 however he left Post Fiji in 2007.

Mau is charged with former Chairman of Post Fiji Limited Mahendra Patel and the former General Manager Finance, Direndra Pratap.

Mau is charged with extortion by public officers.

It is alleged that between 26th and 27th of February 2007 Mau while being employed in the public service as Managing Director of Post Fiji accepted a promise of a reward namely gratuity payment for his early exit from employment with Post Fiji Limited which was beyond his proper pay and emoluments. 

The trial is underway without the presence of Patel who is in Australia.

Patel is charged with abuse of office.

Peni Mau, Fiji High Court told, was paid two years four months’ salary and the gratuity payment but they couldnt find any authorization of the payment; so when will Bainimarama, Khaiyum and Aunty Nur Bano Ali be hauled before the Fiji High Court based on the A-G's recent Report?:

Hari Punja, another Chaudhry target, Vayeshnoi “crony”  “More vindictiveness? Chauhdry and FMF: “Another long-standing Chaudhry enemy has been Hari Punja, the highly successful founder of Flour Mills of Fiji (FMF).  When the Chinese built a large gym for Suva's South Pacific Games a few years ago, Punja bought naming rights for what became the "FMF Dome."  Reportedly FMF recently was a few days late in depositing its periodic payment for the rights, not an uncommon occurrence in Fiji.The Fiji Sports Council (FSC) response was immediate cancellation of the agreement.  The "FMF Dome" logo then was painted out from the front of the gym.  Under the interim government, Chaudhry crony Vayeshnoi is Sports Minister and Chaudhry son Rajendra is on the FSC board.” US ambassador Larry Dinger to Washington, Wikileaks

Yes, Where is the Dictator's Contract??

Yes, Lets see the "contracts" of Aiyaz and Bainimarama & Others who were paid by Begum Bano. Where in the contract it says they were entitled to any gratuity - least of all any pay at all.

If PM's employment contract was terminated short of its due date then he is entitled to "damages" / settlement of which may have been called a gratuity payment.

Mac Patel is an ICON. He is a business Tycoon, who is respected throughout Australasia, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, China and Europe. Intentionally maligning a man of such stature as Mac Patel is foolish and shows vindictiveness on the part of Bainimarama and Aiyaz.

And specially when Bainimarama and Aiyaz (& Others) themselves have been ILLEGAL recipients of huge state funds without any contracts - at all.

Thank You Victor for exposing Mahen. Fiji is enjoying one less Daaku in the government of Ali Baba and Thirty One Thieves.
