MORE than 2000 plants believed to be marijuana were uprooted from various farms in Kadavu, south of Fiji, as Police teams begin revisiting known locations for cultivation.
The plants were uprooted from farms located at the villages of Nacomoto, Namajiu, Mataso, and Rakiraki.
Police spokesperson Ana Naisoro said the raid was also a result of information received from members of the public.
She said the M.V Veiqaravi was deployed to Kadavu yesterday to transport the plants to Suva to be analysed.
She said the owners of the farms were known to Police and their investigations were continuing.
Police also confirmed two other-drug related arrests the arrest of two others, one of whom remains in custody pending investigations, and the other now charged with possession of illicit drugs.
