Nursing scam plot thickensWednesday, April 30, 2008
 Taken from / By: Google Divisional Crime Officer Northern ASP Dr Luke Rawalai said they expect to make more arrests and this time in Labasa, as police tighten the net on those allegedly involved in this scam. Dr Rawalai said investigations thus far have shown several Labasa business persons allegedly colluded with the assistant minister in receiving cash from hopeful nursing students and their families. Dr Rawalai said interviews of possible witnesses are currently being carried out in Ba and Lautoka. The allegation is the business persons received money from nursing hopefuls and forwarded it to the assistant minister in 2004 and 2005. Dr Rawalai said if charges are laid against the former assistant minister, he will appear before the Labasa court. Meanwhile, Rawalai said police may also investigate and charge parents who gave money or bribed public officials to secure places for their children at the Fiji School of Nursing. But this is something they’ll consider after completing current investigations within a month. Fiji Broadcasting Corporation |
