Man arrested in Savusavu for alleged possession of illicit drugs

A man has been arrested in Savusavu for the alleged unlawful possession of illicit drugs, as the Savusavu task force intensifies its monitoring of suspicious and illegal activities in the town area.

Police say several small plastic bags and rolls containing dried leaves believed to be marijuana were seized, along with cash suspected to be proceeds of crime.

The task force also made another arrest for drinking in a public place and recovered stolen items during its operations.

The task force was set up in response to community concerns about public drinking, unruly behaviour, and other minor offences.

The Fiji Police Force has acknowledged the community’s support and information sharing and says it remains committed to addressing concerns about poor service delivery.
