The Commissioner of Police, Rusiate Tudravu, has directed the Internal Affairs Department to initiate an investigation into Nausori Police following allegations of assault circulated in a social media video.
Commissioner Tudravu said the allegations are extremely concerning and assured the public that the investigation will thoroughly examine all claims relating to the conduct of the officers involved.
“The Fiji Police Force maintains zero tolerance for officers who abuse their authority,” he said.
He confirmed that internal disciplinary processes will be initiated as soon as the officers involved are identified.
Commissioner Tudravu said such allegations undermine ongoing efforts to rebuild public trust and confidence in policing, stressing that accountability remains central to police reform.
“These allegations are detrimental to the work being done to restore confidence in the Fiji Police Force,” he said, adding that the matter will be treated as a top priority.
The Police Commissioner assured members of the public that the investigation will be conducted fairly, transparently and in line with established procedures, as the Force continues to reinforce professional standards and ethical conduct among its officers.
