The raid was conducted by police officers from the Southern Division’s Serious and Organised Crime and Intelligence Department, Fiji Detector Dog Unit and Police Dog Unit in Tacirua, Nasinu yesterday afternoon at a 57-year-old’s residence.

ACP Driu adds the seizures of the alleged illicit substances that were ready for sale and distribution, is a positive sign of community-police collaboration towards supply reduction.

He reiterates the organisation’s appreciation to all who continue to support policing efforts in the war on drugs.
