26-year-old in court for allegedly giving liquor to toddler, and posting photos online

A 26-year-old waitress who was allegedly responsible for circulating an image of a toddler with a glass of beer has been charged and will front the Nausori Magistrates Court today.

Police say she was arrested on the 25th of last month, where she was interviewed and released.

It is alleged that during a drinking party in a village in Tailevu, the 26-year-old offered a glass of beer to her one-year-old and eleven-month-old nephew.

She also took a photo of her nephew with a glass of beer and shared it on social media.

Police say she was charged yesterday with a count of giving intoxicating or spirituous liquor to children contrary to Section 59 of the Juveniles Act, 1973.

She is currently in Police custody.
