Police have confirmed no one has been charged yet with the attempted breach at the Republic of Fiji Military Forces (RFMF) facility.

Police spokesperson Ana Naisoro and Sergeant Wame Bautolu said investigations were ongoing.

“Not yet, investigations are continuing,” Mr Bautolu said.

The RFMF has reassured the public that there is no threat to safety following the attempted breach at its facility and other establishments over the past two weeks.

In a statement, the RFMF said unknown individuals had attempted to gain unauthorised access to certain military facilities, but the attempts were unsuccessful due to robust security systems.

The military said a thorough inspection and stocktake confirmed that no weapons, ammunition or related equipment were missing.

The RFMF said it was treating the matter with the utmost seriousness and had begun a comprehensive review of its security measures to strengthen safeguards across all installations.

It added that the safety and security of all weapons and ammunition remain intact, and there is no threat to public safety arising from the incident.

The RFMF reiterated its commitment to maintaining high standards of security and vigilance in protecting its facilities and the people of Fiji.

Questions sent yesterday to the RFMF Commander, Major-General Ro Jone Kalouniwai, remain unanswered.
