Such cowardly acts will never be condoned and police will do all it can to bring those responsible to justice.
These are the words of Interim Minister for Defence Ratu Epeli Ganilau after the homes of former Military man Colonel Sakiusa Raivoce and Fiji Times Editor in Chief Netani Rika were attacked with homemade bombs early Sunday morning.
Ratu Epeli adds that he will discuss with Police Commissioner Commodore Esala Teleni on what arrangements can be made to increase patrols in these areas.
Commodore Teleni could not be reached for a comment while questions on the attacks sent to Director Police Operations SSP Waisea Tabakau this morning remain unanswered.
Unknown men threw the homemade bombs called a Molotov cocktail, which is a glass bottle containing petrol fuel, thickening agent such as sugar with a lit wick, at the homes of Sakiusa Raivoce and Netani Rika early Sunday morning.
Meanwhile, Police Spokesperson Corporal Suliano Tevita confirms that police do not have any leads into locating those responsible as investigations continue.
