Drugs and stolen items have been found by Police after raids with the K9 unit and the Fiji Police Detector Dog Unit in the Western Division.
In the first raid, Police say the suspect whose identity is known to them, evaded arrest and in the process disposed of a number of stolen items that were found by the team.
They say items recovered were assorted electrical appliances.
In another raid conducted last night, dried leaves believed to be marijuana were seized and several syringes and zip-lock bags were also found along the Natabua seaside in a vehicle.
Police say two men aged 35 and 41 were taken into custody as investigations continue.
Assistant Commissioner of Police Operations, Livai Driu says Police K9 capabilities supported by the Fiji Police Detector Dog Unit are regularly deployed to assist with special and routine operations.
ACP Driu says snap checks are being conducted not only to target drugs but also to assist in the detection of other crimes.
He also acknowledged the assistance of supporting agencies with the likes of the Fiji Revenue and Customs Service and New Zealand Police in working under a shared understanding of keeping our nation and region safe from the threats of crime.
