Police are questioning a suspect in relation to one of Fiji’s biggest drug busts where $30 million worth of heroin was discovered at the Lautoka Wharf.
Acting Commissioner of Police, Isikeli Vuniwaqa confirmed that a suspect is still in police custody.
Vuniwaqa earlier said they will not release the storage location of the drugs as it would compromise their investigations.
Fiji Revenue and Customs Authority, CEO, Jitoko Tikolevu confirmed the drugs were found in the tyres of a quad bike inside a container.
He said the drugs were tightly packed in about 80 packets and preliminary tests revealed the content to be heroin.
Tikolevu has also confirmed that the drugs were from Thailand and it was addressed to a local resident.
