ACP Driu further says officers at a Bagasau roadblock discovered a black bag containing dried leaves believed to be marijuana, while another operation in Sabeto led to the arrest of two people and the seizure of similar substances.

He says in Navua, a 35-year-old man was allegedly found with methamphetamine and marijuana during a stop-and-search operation, while another man was arrested for possessing marijuana.
