Two Men In Police Custody For Alleged Murder

Two men are in police custody for their alleged involvement in the death of a man who was found lying outside the Colonial War Memorial Hospital near the Accident and Emergency Ward yesterday afternoon.

The victim who is yet to be identified was found with stab wounds and attempts to revive him by medical authorities proved futile.

The victim is believed to be between 30 - 40 years old, is fair, has a beard and has a masi tattoo on his left arm from his shoulder up to his elbow. Investigators cannot positively confirm the victim's ethnicity.

The victim was seen being dropped off in a silver grey Prius which was later found abandoned in Tacirua. The two suspects who are in their 30s later surrendered themselves at the Nabua Police Station.

Anyone who may have information that could assist in identifying the victim is requested to call the Southern Division Command Center on 9905 529.
