Former Fiji Prime Minister Bainimarama sentenced to one year in jail | The World

Fiji's former long-serving prime minister Frank Bainimarama was on Thursday sentenced to a year in prison for perverting the course of justice, the country's director of public prosecutions said. Bainimarama was initially spared jail in the case during sentencing last month, before being overturned on appeal. Fiji reporter Lice Movono tells The World's Beverley O'Connor it's definitely not the end for Frank Bainimarama.
