Police Commissioner Sitiveni Qiliho in his Easter message to his officers has asked them to have a forgiving heart.
During the Easter Church Service at the Fiji Police Headquarters this morning, Qiliho says the work of a police officer was such that criticism of their work was expected.
Qiliho told the officers to remember the good Lord paid the ultimate price and was crucified not for any wrong doings but because of all the good he had done for all of us.
Force Chaplain Reverend Isireli Kacimaiwai says as custodians of the law the spiritual meaning of Easter can be viewed as a daily battle to choose right from wrong.
Kacimaiwai says from a young age we are taught right from wrong and it has guided us on the way we live our life.
He told the police officers the law is clear on what they need to be doing but it is that inner battle of choosing the right from wrong that has led some astray.
Qiliho has asked his officers to stay true to their calling to serve this Easter, as they will be required to continue working to ensure a safe and incident free long weekend for all Fijians.
