The Acting DPP, Aca Rayawa has clarified that the new Crimes Decree does not allow for gay marriages in the country. Rayawa made the statement after Communication Fiji Limited’s Viti FM station ran a talk back show last week stating that the new Crimes Decree had approved gay marriages.
Rayawa says this is a total lie, and the public is being misled.
Ministry of Information Permanent Secretary Lieutenant Colonel Neumi Leweni says the station breached the Public Emergency Regulations and has referred the matter to the Police. Leweni says the Viti FM talk back show was irresponsible and caused a lot of unnecessary confusion.
