A woman has been charged with one count of failure to provide necessity after allegedly locking her 2-year-old son at their home to go clubbing.
Police Spokesperson Inspector Josaia Weicavu says concerned neighbours reported the matter to Police.
He says the woman’s husband was working when the incident happened last Wednesday.
Weicavu has confirmed that the child is now under the care of the grandmother after consultation with the Social Welfare Department.
The 26-year-old woman is expected to appear in court tomorrow.
