Justin Ho, one of the persons charged in relation to the recent $2 billion methamphetamine busts, is the same person who had his case in court discontinued in 2020 after the cocaine seized in that case went missing from Namaka Police Station.

In that case, it was alleged that former Fiji Airways Flight Attendant Fredrick Epeli and Justin Ho on 23rd December 2018, without lawful authority, attempted to export 2015.7 grams of cocaine to Sydney, Australia.

Following the disappearance of the cocaine, the two men were acquitted of their charges as the DPP had to file a discontinuance in court. Two police officers were suspended pending the outcome of the investigation into the missing cocaine from the police station.

Police spokesperson, Ana Naisoro has confirmed that Ho and Epeli have been recharged and produced for the 2018 charges.

We have also asked what has happened in relation to the Police investigation into the missing cocaine from Namaka Police Station.
