Police will look into yet another case of a person allegedly impersonating the Commissioner of Police Rusiate Tudravu where a man was asking for money and harassing a prominent businessman.

Screenshots shared by the business shows a heated and abusive Viber exchange where an unknown individual is impersonating Tudravu and sending violent threats.

It is alleged that the impersonator is demanding money through M-PAiSA, uses foul language, and issues multiple threats, including burning down a restaurant and physically attacking the recipient.

The impersonator also claims that he has police connections and the Fiji Police is corrupted.

The businessman is yet to file a police report.
