The two women who allegedly assaulted a female police officer at the Wainibokasi Police Post will appear in the Nausori Magistrates Court today.
Police say a 29-year old teacher and her 38-year old sister were initially arrested at Nabitu Village in Tailevu for a case of causing trouble as they were drunk and being a nuisance to other villagers.
As they were being processed at the Wainibokasi Police Post, the two women allegedly attacked the female officer before other officers stepped in to control the situation.
The officer sustained minor injuries and her uniform was torn as a result of the alleged assault.
The two women have each been charged with one count of Serious Assault and one count of Damaging Property.
