Marcellino Pipite is a Vanuatuan politician and former school administration, who was first elected to Parliament in 2004. He was the foreign minister of Vanuatu[1] from November 2004 until December 2004, in the government of Serge Vohor. He was previously the minister for comprehensive reform.[2] He lost his position in the cabinet in December 2004 when the Vohor government fell. He was elected as the Speaker of the Parliament of Vanuatu on 16 June 2015,[3] and served until October 2015. On October 10, 2015, while serving as acting President, he pardoned himself and 13 other MPs who the Supreme Court had found guilty of bribery.[4] President Baldwin Lonsdale, returning to Vanuatu hours after Pipite's pardon has been issued, declared that nobody is above the law and revoked the pardon, a decision upheld by the Vanuatu Supreme Court.[5][6] Pipite and 10 of the other MPs faced charges of conspiracy to pervert the course of justice. Sentencing on the bribery charges went ahead and Pipite was jailed for 3 years, together with most of the other convicted MPs.[7] References1. ^{{cite news|url=http://nl.newsbank.com/nl-search/we/Archives?p_product=NewsLibrary&p_multi=BBAB&d_place=BBAB&p_theme=newslibrary2&p_action=search&p_maxdocs=200&p_topdoc=1&p_text_direct-0=1066CF68C8EEC8A8&p_field_direct-0=document_id&p_perpage=10&p_sort=YMD_date:D&s_trackval=GooglePM|title=Vanuatu foreign minister's post said "rotated"|date=November 16, 2004|work=Port Vila Presse via BBC|accessdate=8 July 2011}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Pipite, Marcellino}}{{Vanuatu-politician-stub}}2. ^{{cite book|title=Keesing's record of world events|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=jS0MAQAAMAAJ|year=2004|publisher=Longman}} 3. ^{{cite news|first=|last=|title=New Vanuatu government changes speaker |url=http://www.radionz.co.nz/international/pacific-news/276430/new-vanuatu-government-changes-speaker |work=Radio New Zealand International |date=2015-06-16 |accessdate=2015-10-13}} 4. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-10-11/convicted-vanuatu-acting-president-pardons-himself-13-others/6844372|title=Vanuatu's acting president uses interim executive powers to pardon himself and 13 others convicted of bribery|author=Liam Fox|date=2015-10-10|work=Australian Broadcasting Corporation|accessdate=2015-10-12}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.radionz.co.nz/news/pacific/286813/vanuatu-pardons-could-be-reversed|title=Vanuatu pardons could be reversed|date=12 October 2015|publisher=|accessdate=17 June 2017}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.radionz.co.nz/international/pacific-news/287646/vanuatu-judge-says-mps'-pardons-invalid|title=Vanuatu judge says MPs' pardons invalid|date=21 October 2015|publisher=|accessdate=17 June 2017}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-34600561|title=Vanuatu court sentences 14 MPs to jail for corruption|date=22 October 2015|publisher=|accessdate=17 June 2017|via=www.bbc.com}} 6 : Living people|Speakers of the Parliament of Vanuatu|Foreign Ministers of Vanuatu|Union of Moderate Parties politicians|Government ministers of Vanuatu|Year of birth missing (living people) |
