Two women arrested in connection with alleged burglary and theft offences in Nadi and Lautoka last week have been charged with one count of burglary and one count of theft.

Police confirmed that the suspects were apprehended by officers on patrol in the main Lautoka City area after one of the women was observed behaving suspiciously.


Police say officers questioned the woman and, based on information obtained during the interaction, were able to identify and locate a second suspect.

Police say the second woman was subsequently arrested and taken into police custody.


They say a number of items believed to have been stolen in the alleged offences were recovered from the two suspects.

They will appear in the Lautoka Magistrates Court today.

Investigations continue.
