The man and 16-year-old girl who were in the taxi are also in custody.

Two men and a juvenile are still in Police custody for their alleged involvement in an aggravated robbery case in Sabeto, Nadi last Friday.

The three are alleged to have forcefully entered the home of a business director, threatened her and her sister and robbed assorted items worth more than $18,000. The two women are both in their 70s.

Police say officers manning a checkpoint in Sigatoka Town stopped and searched a vehicle driven by a taxi driver from Nawaka Nadi and discovered assorted items and cash which are believed to have been robbed from the house in Sabeto.

Officers also found dried leaves believed to be marijuana.

The man and 16-year-old girl who were in the taxi are also in custody.
