Following serious concerns regarding the safety of people out clubbing or going around in Suva City at night, police conducted random traffic checks and patrolled busy nightlife spots in major towns and cities last night.
Legend FM News had raised the issue after a video of a brawl along Victoria Parade had emerged last month. In the video, a person was lying unconscious on the road outside Traps Bar while another person was seen checking his pockets.
In the same video, a group of youths were seen repeatedly beating up another person on the ground.
We had raised the issue with Police on what is being done to ensure such incidents are not repeated and to ensure the safety of the people out at night.
We also asked if the CCTV cameras connected around the city to Totogo Police Station can result in the quick capture of the people involved.
Police Chief Operations Officer, ACP Abdul Khan had earlier said they have uniformed and civilian Police officers who are on foot patrol and there is a team on mobile.
ACP Khan stressed such incidents will not be tolerated and if there is a report lodged they will be investigating and those involved will be dealt with accordingly.
