Four juveniles who were arrested in Lautoka for breach of curfew are also being investigated for their alleged involvement in a case of throwing stones at a Police vehicle. They were arrested along with three other adults. Acting Police Commissioner Rusiate Tudravu says a 41-year-old contractor of Sigatoka was arrested in Nadi and is possibly facing an additional charge of unlawful possession of illicit drugs after he was allegedly found with white substances believed to be methamphetamine. 53 arrests were made for breach of curfew over the last 48 hour period. Tudravu says a man in his 70s was drunk and driving around on Denarau Island in Nadi. The arrests made in the Southern Division were recorded in Lami, Nabua, Valelevu and Nasinu and of the 20 cases, 10 involved those who were intoxicated during the time of the arrest.

The two cases recorded in the Central Division involved two men found drunk while the one case in the Eastern Division involved a 19-year-old student who was found drunk in Nausori Town.

Police say from 11 pm last night to 4 am this morning, 12 cases were registered.

The Western and Eastern Divisions recorded five cases each while the Southern Division recorded two cases.

An 18-year-old woman and a 24-year-old man were found drunk and sitting at the Namaka Lane Bus Stop. The arrests recorded in the Eastern Division were made in Nakasi and Nausori. All four arrests made in Nausori involved those who were all drunk. The two cases in the Southern Division were made in Nabua and Valelevu and both men were also drunk when they were arrested.
