Two civil servants will be produced in the Suva Magistrates Court today after they were allegedly found with marijuana in Kadavu earlier this week.

The two accused, a driver and an employee were arrested after the Government vehicle they were travelling was stopped by officers on patrol along Tavuki Road over the weekend.

Police say a search conducted inside the vehicle resulted in the seizure of dried leaves confirmed to be marijuana. The two have been charged with one count of unlawful possession of illicit drugs each.

The two were escorted from Kadavu yesterday and will be produced in court today.
