  • Mccoskar and Nadan V. State, High Court of Fiji at Suva
    IN THE HIGH COURT OF FIJI AT SUVA APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPEAL CASE NOS.: HAA0085 & 86 OF 2005 BETWEEN: DHIRENDRA NADAN THOMAS MCCOSKAR Appellant AND: STATE Respondent Counsel: Ms. N. Khan - for both Appellants Mr. K. Tunidau –for the State Dr. S. Shameem – for Human Rights Commission Ms D. Herman – for Human Rights Commission Ms S. Tabaiwalu – for Attorney-General Ms M.R. Vuniwaqa – for Attorney-General Dates of Hearing: 15th, 16th and 17th August, 2005 (in Suva) Date of Judgment: 26th August, 2005 (in Lautoka) JUDGMENT Introduction The criminal law has at times tried to keep the powerful forces of sexual expression in check. Some such laws are absolutely necessary; to protect children and the vulnerable against sexual exploitation or corruption and to protect adults from unwanted approaches by sexual predators. In most societies these necessary laws have found their limits in a citizens right to privacy and equality. In this appeal the court is urged to find and declare some limits for the prosecution, conviction and sentencing of two homosexuals engaged in consensual, intimate, private but criminal conduct. Background Mr. McCoskar was a tourist in the country from Melbourne, Australia. He arrived on the 20th of March 2005 for a holiday and met up with the second appellant Mr. Nadan. They stayed together as partners. At the end of his vacation, on the 3rd of April, Mr. McCoskar suspected that Mr. 1 Nadan had stolen AUD$1500.00 from him during their time together. He lodged a complaint with the police, checked in at international departures and went to board his flight home.

  • The Case That Stopped the Coup? the Rule of Law in Fiji
    1 THE CASE THAT STOPPED A COUP? THE RULE OF LAW IN FIJI George Williams Anthony Mason Professor and Director Gilbert + Tobin Centre of Public Law Faculty of Law University of New South Wales THIS IS A TRANSCRIPT OF THE 2003 QUENTIN-BAXTER MEMORIAL TRUST LECTURE DELIVERED AT THE LAW SCHOOL OF VICTORIA UNIVERSITY OF WELLINGTON ON 27 NOVEMBER 2003. 2 I INTRODUCTION∗ I appreciate the privilege of addressing you today. As a scholar at Victoria University of Wellington, Professor Quentin-Baxter recognised something that is only becoming fully apparent today. That is the idea, reflected in his own academic work and public service, that it is not only possible, but necessary to bridge the divide that is often imagined between the fields of international and constitutional law. I am also delighted to be giving this lecture because it deals with a subject to which Mrs Alison Quentin- Baxter, as a constitutional and international lawyer, has made a distinguished contribution. That subject is the development of legal institutions and the strengthening of the rule of law in the Pacific. Mrs Quentin-Baxter was Counsel assisting the Fiji Constitution Review Committee that was instrumental in drafting Fiji’s multi-racial 1997 Constitution.1 My lecture today concerns that Constitution and the events that overtook it. On 29 May 2000, the Commander of the Fiji Military Forces issued a decree abrogating the 1997 Fijian Constitution. Nine months later on 1 March 2001, the Court of Appeal of Fiji held in Republic of Fiji v Prasad2 that the 1997 Constitution remains in force as the supreme law of Fiji.

  • Buresala Training School, Fiji from Journal of Pacific Adventist History
    Buresala Training School, Fiji From Journal of Pacific Adventist History. Buresala Training School, Fiji RAYMOND WILKINSON Raymond Wilkinson, Ed.D. (Andrews University, Berrien Springs, Michigan, USA) was born to missionary parents and grew up in Fiji. He was educated at Longburn College, Massey University New Zealand, and Avondale College Australia. With wife Ruth, his Church service involved teaching and educational administration in the South Pacific Islands. He retired 1994 but since then has enjoyed volunteer service in the islands. Now married to Lola, Raymond has four adult children and eight grandchildren. Buresala Training School was the first educational institution designed to train workers that the Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) church operated in Fiji (and, in fact, the South Pacific Islands region). From its opening in February 1905 until the transfer of its programs, in 1940, to what became Fulton College, it prepared a steady stream of ministers, teachers, workers’ spouses, and dedicated church laypeople. In that way, it supported the advancement of the church in Fiji and also in areas of Polynesia and Melanesia, including New Guinea. Early Plans John I. Tay and his wife, Hannah, Americans, were the first Seventh-day Adventist missionaries to Fiji. They arrived by the first voyage of the SDA missionary ship Pitcairn in 1891. Sadly, Tay died on January 8, 1892, after only five months in Fiji.1 In 1894 Americans John Cole and his wife arrived, and they were joined in May 1896 by the American John Fulton and his family.2 John Cole returned to America in 1897 because of ill health, and Fulton was then joined, in 1898, by the American Calvin Parker and his wife.3 Fulton and Parker began visiting Suvavou (New Suva), a village across the harbor from Suva, and one of their first converts was Pauliasi Bunoa, who had been a teacher, an ordained minister, and a missionary to Papua New Guinea for the Wesleyan church.
