The 35-year-old woman from Kabara who went out to look for ivi last Friday is still missing.

Villagers of Kabara with Police from Lakeba searched for the woman on Saturday and yesterday.

The representative of the Tikina of Kabara Tukana Rokobuli says the woman went out to look for ivi when the weather was calm but destructive winds started again.

It is understood the woman went out while the eye of TC Yasa was passing, thinking that the calm weather meant Yasa was gone.

Rokobuli says they could not mobilise a search team because of destructive winds and heavy rain that was experienced for about 6 hours.

The search will continue today.
