FSIN vice-chief speaks about police investigation
Federation of Sovereign Inidigenous Nations (FSIN) First Vice-Chief Kimberley Jonathan is claiming she wanted to become the organization’s interim chief in order to freeze bank accounts and assist a Saskatoon police investigation.
Police confirmed Tuesday they have been conducting an investigation into individuals at the FSIN since November 2017, but wouldn’t provide any further details. They said it began after a complaint was brought forward.
In an interview with 650 CKOM Tuesday afternoon, Jonathan said the police probe was looking into alleged “financial irregularities.”
She said several former and current staff members at the organization have conducted video interviews with police and have submitted documents, despite anger from others at the FSIN.
