Fiji court dismisses claim that coup was illegal
Fiji's High Court rejected a former prime minister's legal challenge against the 2006 military coup that ousted him, ruling Thursday that the president was right to endorse the takeover to end a period of crisis.
The court said the president acted within the law when he authorized a transition of power to the military leader following the coup. Former Prime Minister Laisenia Qarase slammed the ruling as an invitation for further military takeovers in the South Pacific nation.
Armed forces chief and self-appointed prime minister, Commodore Frank Bainimarama, overthrew Qarase's democratically elected government on Dec. 5, 2006, after accusing it of corruption and imposing racist policies.
