The Office of the Commissioner of Police has issued a directive to repeal the Extra Marital Affairs policy effective today.
In a letter, Acting Commissioner of Police Juki Chew Fong made references to the 2013 Constitution and several other legislations including the no-drop policy and the Police Act 1965.
This policy was challenged by two former police officers who were terminated under this policy.
Earlier this year a judicial review saw Justice Anare Tuilevuka of Lautoka’s High Court directing the Commissioner of Police and Attorney-General to reinstate the two officers.
He ruled the force’s ‘No Drop Policy on Extramarital Affairs’ is a legal error if it was intended to be used as the foundation for any Disciplinary Tribunal to take a harsh ‘moral approach’ to extramarital affairs.
FBC News has sent questions to the Fiji Police Force and is awaiting a response.
