Let us target zero curfew breaches - PM

Prime Minister, Voreqe Bainimarama says let’s get the number down to zero for curfew breaches.

Bainimarama says police officers had to make more than a few arrests over the weekend, but the number of arrests for curfew breaches on Sunday night fell to 21 from 110 on Saturday night.

He says he wants to give credit to the vast majority of Fijians who respected the rules and kept themselves and their loved ones at home. Bainimarama says Stay at Home, Save Lives.

He says it is also the best way all of us can honour the sacrifices of the Police and RFMF officers and healthcare heroes serving on the frontlines of the war against coronavirus in the hospitals, fever clinics, contact tracing teams and isolation wards.

Confirmed cases have surged past 1.2 million worldwide while more families are being robbed of loved ones every day as the global death count approaches 70,000.
