A team of Police headed by the Divisional Crime Officer Southern is investigating two cases of fires on properties belonging to Digicel Fiji.

Assistant Commissioner of Police Crime (ACP/Crime) Sakeo Raikaci says the first report was lodged by a company engineer last night who, during a routine check, saw one of the cables at their tower in Flagstaff damaged and was on fire.

ACP Raikaci says the second report was lodged by a Nabua Police Officer who, while on patrol, saw the tower located along Ratu Mara Road on fire.

The National Fire Authority was alerted and managed to contain the fire.

He says the investigating team has been tasked to ensure those responsible for damaging the critical infrastructures are arrested.
