Two civil servants who were allegedly found with marijuana in Kadavu over the weekend have been granted bail by the Suva Magistrates Court.

Vereniki Raiwalui and Samuela Bulabalavu have each been charged with one count of unlawful possession of illicit drugs.

Police say the two accused, a driver and an employee were arrested after the Government vehicle they were travelling in was stopped by officers on patrol along Tavuki Road over the weekend.

A search conducted inside the vehicle resulted in the seizure of dried leaves confirmed to be marijuana.

The case will be called on the 23rd of next month.
