フィジーの高等裁判所は,ラブカ首相が反腐敗の責任者マリマリを不法に解雇した判決を下し,彼女の復帰を命じた. Fiji’s High Court ruled Prime Minister Rabuka unlawfully fired anti-corruption chief Malimali, ordering her reinstatement.

フィジーの最高裁判所は,2025年6月,反汚職指導者バーバラ・マリマリマリリの解任は違法であると宣言し,サティニ・ラブカ首相が大統領に助言する憲法上の権限の欠如を訴えた. The High Court of Fiji declared that the dismissal of anti-corruption chief Barbara Malimali in June 2025 was illegal, citing Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka's lack of constitutional authority to advise the President to do so. 裁判官のDane Tuiqereqereによると,フィジーの2013年憲法は,司法サービス委員会にのみ許可され,首相ではなく,FICAC委員の任命または解任を提案します. According to Justice Dane Tuiqereqere, Fiji's 2013 Constitution only permits the Judicial Services Commission, not the Prime Minister, to suggest the appointment or dismissal of FICAC Commissioners. JSCが無能であるという主張を拒絶し,裁判所はマリマリの司法審査を承認し,彼女の復帰を命じて,法廷費用としてFJ$7,500を支払った. Rejecting arguments that the JSC was incapacitated, the court upheld Malimali's judicial review, ordered her reinstatement, and awarded her FJ$7,500 in legal fees. マリマリ氏は,この決定を法の支配の勝利として表明し,政府は上訴を提起する予定である. Malimali hailed the decision as a triumph for the rule of law, while the government intends to file an appeal.
