A man has been arrested in Korovou following a police raid at his home, where he was allegedly found selling alcohol illegally. During the operation conducted by Eastern Division officers, several cans of various alcoholic beverages were seized. The individual is now in police custody as investigations proceed.
The Fiji Police Force has appealed to the public to report any illegal liquor sales, highlighting the serious harm and potential fatalities associated with alcohol-related incidents. They are also urging community leaders to stay vigilant and report any suspicious activities to police command centers.
This recent incident aligns with ongoing police efforts to combat illegal liquor sales, similar to cases seen in Tacirua, where multiple arrests were made for selling alcohol without the necessary licenses. Police officials, including Assistant Commissioner of Police Operations Livai Driu, have underscored the link between illegal alcohol sales and broader criminal activities.
These operations reflect a commitment to maintaining public safety and addressing the risks associated with unregulated alcohol sales. The community’s cooperation is essential in fostering a safer environment for all.
