SUVA, March 19 (Xinhua) -- Concerns have been raised about hate speech posts on Fiji's social media following the Christchurch terror attack in New Zealand last Friday as the Fijian Police Force vowed on Tuesday to make investigation on the issue.

Police Commissioner Brigadier General Sitiveni Qiliho said Tuesday the Fiji police Force was going to take strict actions on those who put up hate speeches.

Many people that are posting, commenting, sharing and supporting such hate posts showed they were not fully aware of what the consequences are, he said.

He said he could not allow this type of hate speech and rhetoric to continue.

Meanwhile, Fijian Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama is urging Fijians to speak up against hatred.

Family members of the three Fijian nationals, who are among the 50 victims killed in the Christchurch attacks, have flown to New Zealand on Tuesday.
