Serious concerns are now being raised by some women who have been allegedly targeted by some people at night.

There have been posts on social media with videos of some drivers following women in Nadi and Suva at night, offering them free rides and drinks if they get into the vehicle.

The women say they are concerned, and they are highlighting these incidents for everyone to know as they are worried about cases of rape and sex trafficking.

Police say as directed by the Commissioner of Police, Brigadier General Sitiveni Qiliho, the Criminal Investigations Department is working on the details of all the vehicle registrations being circulated on social media and are in the process of reaching out to those posting the information regarding the alleged abduction attempts on social media.
