A female suspect has been arrested for brewing home-brew at a village in south Choiseul recently.

Taro police carried out the arrest, Provincial Police Commander (PPC) Choiseul Province Superintendent Berry Pogesopa said.

“Police responded to the incident and arrested a 46-year-old female suspect on 2 April 2025.”

PPC Pogesopa added the suspect was dealt with and charged with two counts under the Liquor Act. 

“The female suspect will appear before Taro Court Circuit on a later date.”

He appealed to the good people in south Choiseul, try to engage in different economic activities that will not bring any anti-social issues in the communities.

“Not only homebrew; we can engage in generating money to sustain us but find other ways to generate money rather than making homebrew,” he said.
