Two individuals have been apprehended following a break-in at the High Court building in Lautoka over the weekend. According to police spokesperson Ana Naisoro, the suspects were taken into custody on Sunday, though it remains unconfirmed if any items were pilfered during the incident.
Manasa Tabuakula, the police liaison officer for the West, reported that investigators identified the suspects through security footage from the courthouse. The CCTV revealed one suspect breaking into the premises, prompting an ongoing investigation.
The break-in was first reported early Monday morning by a senior court officer, leading to the temporary suspension of all court proceedings in Lautoka. However, court sessions are anticipated to resume soon.
This incident unfolds against a backdrop of increasing criminal activities in the Lautoka region, where burglaries and robberies have become more prevalent. In response, police are intensifying efforts to enhance security and community safety.
As the investigation progresses, there is hope that the case will be resolved promptly and that the proactive measures taken by law enforcement will deter future criminal activities, ultimately creating a safer environment for all residents. The collaboration of the community with police can play a pivotal role in enhancing public safety moving forward.
