Police arrested a 52-year-old woman after a search at the HFC Stadium yesterday led to the discovery of a small plastic bag contianing white substances believed to be methamphetamine.

And what led to the bag search was an alert by a Police K9 Unit dog called Tiny.

Assistant Commissioner of Police for Operations (ACP) Livai Driu said K9 Tiny, whilst conducting clearance duties with officers from the Fiji Detector Dog Unit and Police Dog Unit, indicated the presence of alleged illicit substances.

A female officer was asked to conduct a search, where a small clear plastic containing white substances believed to be methamphetamine was discovered in the suspect’s bag.

ACP Driu said the suspect was arrested and escorted to Totogo Police Station while the seized substances were sent for analysis.

ACP Driu said operations will be beefed up during the last two days of the Coca-Cola Games, focusing on ensuring the safety and security of athletes, students, supporters and those who genuinely want to enjoy the best of secondary school athletics.
