Four men have been arrested and charged for allegedly importing methamphetamine into the country.

Police say joint collaboration between the Fiji Police Force, Fiji Revenue and Customs Service and Fiji Immigration Department resulted in the arrests.

They say on the 12th of May, a customs officer seized a consignment of Nutritional Dietary Supplement sent from the United States which was tested positive as liquid methamphetamine.

Police were alerted and a controlled operation was conducted by the Fiji Police Narcotics Bureau which led to the four men involved.

Police say arrested are three Fijian nationals and a foreign national, all of whom face charges of unlawful importation of illicit drugs, unlawful possession of illicit drugs and unlawful transportation of illicit drugs.

All four will be produced in the Suva Magistrates Court tomorrow.

They say successful conduct of joint operations is yet another positive outcome of collaborative efforts towards the protection of Fiji's borders.
