He has to serve 8 Years before he is eligible for parole. However, last December the Fiji Court of Appeal granted him leave to appeal against his conviction and sentence. Sami is not the only one.

“The brief facts of the case were as follows. The accused, aged 60 years, was a businessman. He owned a 97 acres farm in Raiwaqa, Navua, where he raised various animals and maintained a vegetable farm. He hired various people to work for him on the farm. On the farm, he had a two bedroom farm house. The house had a bathroom, kitchen, a vacant room and a warehouse. In the warehouse, he kept his machineries, working tools and farming manure. The accused had hired the complainant’s (PW1) husband (PW2), as his caretaker at the farm house. The complainant was aged 27 years old, and her husband, was 40 years old, at the time of the incidents. In 2014, the accused normally visited his farm every now and then to check on his workers and to issue instructions to them on what to be done. PW1 and PW2 lived in bedroom no. 2 in the farm house, while the accused lived in bedroom no. 1, when he decides to stay at the farm. Between 1 and 31 July 2014, in one of his visits, the accused met the complainant in the warehouse. All his workers were out in the farm. The accused forcefully told the complainant (PW1) to take off her clothes. Out of fear, she complied. The accused then inserted his penis into her vagina for 3 minutes without her consent. He knew she was not consenting to sex at the time (count no. 1). Two years later, on 25 October 2016, in bedroom no. 1, the accused again repeated the above episode to the complainant (count no. 2). Four days later on 29 October 2016, the accused again tried to force himself sexually on the complainant. In the process, he indecently annoyed her by showing her his penis…Mr. Govind Sami for raping the complainant in July 2014, in October 2016, and also indecently annoying her in October 2016, I sentence you to 9 years imprisonment, with a non-parole period of 8 years imprisonment, effective forthwith.”
