A 27-year-old Medical Officer who was found drunk and walking along Rewa Street was part of the seven people who were arrested for breaching curfew in the last 48 hours.

Acting Commissioner of Police Rusiate Tudravu says three arrests were recorded from Sunday 11pm to 4am Monday and all these cases were recorded in the Western Division whereby three men in their 30’s were found drunk while travelling in a vehicle at Vatudradra in Nadroga.

Tudravu says from 11pm last night to 4 this morning four reports were recorded.
