8 more Police officers have been deployed for overseas peacekeeping mission duties.

They are Inspectors Mohammed Intaiyaz and Bimlesh Naicker, Sergeants Sam Raj, Biu Tagilala, Mohammed Khan and Alisi Lalabalavu, Corporal Merewai Cavua and Police Constable Maria Likusautu.

They were deployed to the United Nations Mission in South Sudan over the weekend.

The eight officers had to sacrifice personal time with their families, as they had quarantine in order to be fully compliant with COVID-safe protocols before their departure.

Police are hopeful that once the global situation normalizes, more officers will be deployed to either existing, or new UN peacekeeping mission areas.

There are currently 20 police officers deployed in various United Nations Peacekeeping mission areas.
