The High Court in Suva has heard closing submissions from the defence and the prosecution in the case of Satyna Nand, a Fiji police exhibit writer charged with the theft of $22,090.

State prosecutor Ana Tuiketei told assessors the prosecution had shown that the accused was the one who stole $22, 090.

“And he attempted to steal the rest. Prosecution has proved this beyond reasonable doubt,” Tuiketei said.

Nand, who faces charges of larceny by servant, attempted larceny and forgery is alleged to have stolen the money from police exhibits.

The cash was kept in the police exhibits room between January 2003 and January 2009, at the Central Police Station.

The $22,090 was robbery money recovered by police for investigation.

Nand is represented by Suva lawyer Mehboob Raza.

The case is before Justice Salesi Temo.
