Authorities in Savusavu conducted a significant operation yesterday, resulting in the seizure of over 400 plants suspected to be marijuana in the Tacilevu farming area. The operation, led by the Savusavu Operations team, was part of a broader initiative aimed at tackling illegal cultivation in known hotspots.
Assistant Commissioner of Police Operations, Livai Driu, confirmed that investigations are ongoing to identify the owner of the farm, highlighting the commitment of law enforcement to address the intricate nature of the illicit drug trade. He noted that their efforts extend beyond merely arresting individuals found with drugs, as they strive to dismantle the operations at various levels across all five policing divisions.
The police’s proactive approach reflects a wider strategy to combat drug-related issues by targeting cultivation sites and ensuring thorough investigations, which can lead to more substantial outcomes in the fight against illegal drugs.
This continued vigilance and dedication to unveiling the complexities of drug trafficking may deter such activities in the future and contribute to the establishment of a safer community. By focusing on the root causes and cultivation areas, law enforcement is taking meaningful steps toward addressing this persistent issue.
