Two men will be produced in the Labasa Magistrates Court today charged with murder.
They are alleged to have caused the death of an elderly citizen following an aggravated robbery case in Savusavu last month.
The duo had originally been charged with aggravated robbery.
The two allegedly forcibly entered the home of the victim in Nagigi, Savusavu, assaulted him, causing injuries, and stole assorted items.
The victim passed away at the end of last month whereby investigators were then tasked to pursue the case as murder.
“Earlier this week the two were released into Police custody by the Labasa High Court to be further interviewed for the victim’s death,” said Fiji Police Force.
