Education Minister Rosy Akbar has confirmed to FBC News that Kumar has been suspended pending investigations.

Over the few weeks, Kumar has made numerous posts alleging that he has in his possession a pornographic video of Qereqeretabua.

He has also attacked her character, and in his latest post claimed that he is writing to the Speaker of the House, Ratu Epeli Nailatikau to complain about the NFP MP.

Education Minister Akbar had earlier released a statement warning all staff to adhere to the Civil Service Code of Conduct or face disciplinary action.

FBC News visited Kumar’s Facebook page yesterday evening and can confirm that the videos and posts relating to Qereqeretabua have now been removed.
