Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka has exclusively confirmed to Fiji One News that Professor Biman Prasad will be reinstated as Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance.

This follows Professor Prasad’s acquittal by the Suva Magistrates Court today.

The date of his reinstatement has yet to be confirmed.

The court ruled that the Fiji Independent Commission Against Corruption had failed to prove its case against him.

Professor Prasad had faced charges relating to his alleged failure to declare his directorship in a company and providing false information in a statutory declaration.
