near Oniviro, outside Levuka Town, over the weekend.
FRA Chief Executive Officer Kamal Prasad says these acts of vandalism are unacceptable as it
is not only associated with costly repairs and slowing down the maintenance works, but it further
encourages criminal activity.
“The public needs to be mindful that the damages inflicted on the contractor’s equipment will
only slow down road works in their area. This hugely impacts on the cost of sending the
contractors to remote sites as some contractors are not willing to deploy on normal rates purely
because of such threats.”
Mr Prasad said the matter has been referred to the Fiji Police and they are working with them to
pursue offenders.
Anyone with information regarding this incident or the suspect is asked to contact the Police.
