A 38-year-old man who allegedly breached his 14-day mandatory isolation period after returning from New Zealand will be questioned by police once cleared by medical authorities.

Police Commissioner, Sitiveni Qiliho says the man was directed to self-isolate after returning to Fiji and allegedly left his place of isolation in Newtown Settlement in Nasinu earlier this week.

Qiliho says a team conducting checks on those directed to self-isolate went to his home to inquire about his status and found him missing and they were informed that he had gone shopping.

He is back into isolation.
