The head of Fiji's women crisis centre says it's shocking that two prominent Fijian men are advocating for a convicted rapist to be allowed to play rugby.
  
Teivovo Rugby's publisher Culden Kamea and veteran TV sports commentator Satish Narain want former national sevens player Amenoni Nasilasila to be allowed play at local competitions. 

Nasilasila is serving an eight-year jail term for rape.
