Police have started an investigation into an alleged case of sacrilege where a Hindu God’s idol was demolished and removed from a compound in Lawaki settlement in Lautoka.

Police Spokesperson, Ana Naisoro says a report was lodged by the neighbours.

She says officers were deployed to the settlement as there was tension in the community.
