Officers to appear in Court

Six police officers will be produced at the Suva Magistrates Court today charged with allegedly planting drugs in a vehicle belonging to a 23year old man in Suva in May last year.

All six have been charged with one count of conspiracy to defeat justice.

Two of the six officers face additional charges of abuse of office.

The six allegedly planted a small clear bag containing methamphetamine in the back of the victim's car.

A report was lodged by the victim of the group's alleged illegal activities whereby investigations were conducted by the Criminal Investigations Department and charges sanctioned by the Director of Public Prosecutions.
