False claims by disgraced and terminated former event organizer of the Miss Universe Fiji contest that Manshika Prassad is the winner are not true.

He had no authority on the night to even announce his client he manages as the winner, or anyone; he had no authority to select 6 of the 8 judges and appoint only his family, friends, business, a Fiji Indian, and associates, and then not count the licensee vote.

He has since been terminated and issued a cease-and-desist letter on September 2nd by MUF for falsely claiming he determines the winner, continuing to do media releases to confuse the public, over his attempts to reinstall his client as the wrongful winner.

He has engaged in a media smear campaign against one of the contestants and is trying to deflect his vote-rigging on the night of the event to blaming some mystery man who wasn’t a judge, had no involvement in selecting judges, and wasn’t even at the event.

The public should ignore the false stories he has his media contacts running in a concerted PR campaign to get his client reinstalled as the winner, and get the lucrative global sponsorship deals.

It’s MUF’s role to select the best representative to attend Mexico in November, not client managers or former event organizers, and MUF will not be manipulated or extorted otherwise.
