The Fiji Police Force has taken action in response to threats made against the Verma family following a viral video featuring their son, Bhavik Verma, and security guard Ritesh Toga. Assistant Commissioner of Police Operations, Livai Driu, confirmed they are investigating the situation after reports emerged of threatening calls and messages directed at the Verma family.

The video, which gained significant attention over the weekend, features Mr. Toga admitting fault in a recent car accident, unaware that he was being filmed. While many have shown support for Mr. Toga, the Verma family has faced backlash as a result. In light of the threats they received, Sanjay Verma, Bhavik’s father, has expressed concerns for their safety and requested increased police presence in their neighborhood in Suva.

In a surprising turn, the community has rallied around Mr. Toga, with Fijians both locally and overseas sending over FJD$3300 in support through M-PAiSA, deeming the situation a “blessing in disguise” for him. Despite the positive turnout for Mr. Toga, he has called for calm and urged the public not to direct any hostility towards the Verma family.

This incident highlights the power of community support in difficult times, demonstrating how public sentiment can rally for those in need while also reminding us of the importance of compassion and understanding in the face of conflict.

Overall, the involvement of the police indicates a commitment to ensuring safety and resolving the issues at hand, fostering a sense of hope for the Verma family amid the challenges they face.
