Two crew members from Virgin Australia were reportedly attacked in Nadi, Fiji, during a night out on New Year’s Day, prompting an investigation.
Nadi: So, here’s the scoop. Two crew members from Virgin Australia had a really rough night in Fiji. They were out celebrating New Year’s Day when things took a terrible turn.
According to the police, the incidents happened after they left a nightclub called Bar One. The woman was allegedly raped, and the man was robbed. Can you believe that?
The poor guy ended up in the hospital with facial injuries. It’s just awful. They were supposed to fly out the next day, but now they’re stuck dealing with this nightmare.
Fiji’s Acting Commissioner of Police, Juki Fong Chew, confirmed they’re looking into it. He mentioned that a suspect, who’s already known to the police, has been questioned. But the investigation is still ongoing.
Viliame Gavoka, Fiji’s deputy prime minister, expressed his regret over what happened. He reassured everyone that the crew members are in good health and are staying at a hotel while helping the police.
He said they should be able to head home by the end of the week. It’s just so sad that their trip turned into such a scary experience.
Fiji is usually a beautiful getaway, attracting tons of tourists, especially from Australia. It’s just heartbreaking to hear about incidents like this.
Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs is aware of the situation and is keeping an eye on it. Let’s hope the crew members can recover from this and get back home safely.
