He reiterated that the police are diligently following up on intelligence leads and remain determined to target individuals involved in organized crime.
“We are actively pursuing intelligence received and verifying the information. We will uncover the networks and those involved, and I am calling for public support towards policing efforts,” he stated. Tudravu concluded by emphasizing that community cooperation is essential in aiding law enforcement to protect Fiji from the escalating threat of transnational criminal activities. This collaboration embodies a hopeful stride towards a safer, drug-free society.
