Six men have been arrested in relation to the alleged murder of 16-year-old Zoya Bibi of Narere last month.

Media Liaison Officer Atunaisa Sokomuri has confirmed three were charged last night while three were charged this morning.

He said the hunt continues for the seventh suspect whose identity is known to police.

It is alleged that Bibi was killed during a drinking party a few metres away from the river, where her partly decomposed body was found floating by some children who were playing near the river.

The six charged are expected to appear in the Nasinu Magistrates Court later today.
