The military has today called on the Coordinator of the Fiji Womens Crisis Centre, Shamima Ali to stop getting involved in politics.
RFMF Land Force Commander, Colonel Pita Driti says Ali should concentrate on tackling the rise in sex-related offences and stop blaming the events of December 2006 for the increasing statistics.
While speaking from NZ, Shamima Ali says it seems her words have had an effect for Colonel Driti to be responding to her.
Meanwhile Colonel Driti is now calling for a period of silence from the politicians and NGO's to ensure that the political forum is successful.
He says the political parties and NGO's have to stop attacking the RFMF and the interim government if they want Fiji to move forward.
Shamima Ali says they cannot be silenced and will continue to speak out.
