I wish to raise a concern how and why police officers at Nausori don’t seem to do their work diligently and are ignoring complaints lodged by members of the community.

On July 15, 2023, a complaint was lodged by Cagivou Vusuya Buses after one of its minibuses was involved in an accident with a minivan. The driver of the minivan had bumped into the parked minibus.

The driver of the minibus took pictures of the minivan and driver, while he fled from the accident scene.

The complaint was lodged when police officers arrived at the scene and gave them proof such as pictures of the accident, driver involve, minivan model and its registration number plates.

However, days have turned into weeks, yet the police are unable to trace the location of the driver and the minivan, despite the evidence presented.

I can only assume that these law officers are reluctant to act on the matter and help the complainants. I don’t know if they treat other cases in the same way, but I feel that these officers don’t care.

So, I urge the police department heads to address this laxity.

I hope to get a response on this matter.
