FIJIAN Police has increased mobile patrols because of the number of people being arrested beginning on Monday this week for breaching curfew hours from 10pm last night to 5am

Commissioner of Police Brigadier-General Sitiveni Qiliho said “As well as the static checkpoints erected at strategic locations throughout the country, increased mobile patrols continues as reports come in of people not adhering to the curfew and are moving around in areas outside of where the roadblocks have been erected.”

“As a warning to all those still deliberately breaching the curfew hours, we will get you, as our mobile patrols have been beefed up,” Brig-Gen Qiliho.

“We continue to urge members of the public to contact the National Police Command and Control Center on 9905 296 or their nearest Divisional Police Command Centers and report those that are breaching the curfew hours, as we need to work together to fight COVID-19,” he said.

“Every bit of information counts and we appreciate all the assistance that has been rendered to officers on COVID-19 and routine operations.”
