Three men are in police custody following two separate drug raids in Nakasi which led to the discovery of white substances believed to be methamphetamine.
Chief Operations Officer, ACP Livai Driu says the raids were conducted on Saturday afternoon.
The first raid conducted at Dilo Street led to the arrest of a 38 year old technician after several zip lock plastic bags containing clear crystals believed to be methamphetamine and smoking apparatus were found in his home.
ACP Driu also says the second raid was conducted at Vishnu Deo Road where two men aged 38 and 30 were arrested after zip lock bags containing clear crystals believed to be methamphetamine were found in their possession.
All three men remain in custody as the seized substances have been sent for analysis.

In the Northern Division, several arrests were made over the weekend of people found in possession of dried leaves believed to be marijuana.
ACP Driu adds farm raids are also continuing as well as efforts towards pursuing information received on those suspected to be involved in the illicit drug trade.
