Augustine Geve

Augustine Geve (died August 20, 2002) was a Solomon Islands Catholic priest and politician.

Life
He was first elected to Parliament in the December 2001 general election, as MP for South Guadalcanal, at the time of the violent ethnic conflict on Guadalcanal. He was then appointed Minister for Youth, Women and Sports in Prime Minister Allan Kemakeza's Cabinet.

Death
On August 20, 2002, Geve was assassinated by Ronnie Cawa, Francis Lela and warlord Harold Keke "on a remote beach" on Guadalcanal. The three men were convicted for the crime and several other murders in March 2005 by High Court judge (and future Governor General) Frank Kabui, who sentenced them to life in jail. Geve's vacant seat in Parliament was filled in a by-election, and he was succeeded by Victor Totu.
