Found - Small waist pouch with personal items

Justin and Domino from Johnsonville

Hi. I found a small waist pouch with cards, keys, etc belonging to Avinesh Pratap. Can you please contact me or if anyone knows this person?
If not I will hand into the police station tomorrow.

Tried going to the local JV police station but it was closed. Called the station number listed and an "event number" has been created. I was told by the person on the phone they will let me know when the station will be open for me to go drop off the item; alternatively if a car is passing by my place will pick it up from me.

If any one has other suggestions to help that would be great.

Today is Thursday and I received a call from the Police communications officer. She suggested that I try again to go down to the JV station and if it is not open to give 105 a call and they will see if there is a car passing by. Like really? Otherwise she suggested that I go into the Victoria Street station which is open 24 hours. Unfortunately I don't go into town regularly.

Today is Friday and I tried going down to the JV police station this morning........again it was closed. If I head into town tomorrow I will drop it off at the Victoria Street station.

I have handed in the waist pouch over at the Victoria Street Police Station yesterday, Sunday 17 Jan 2022.

Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.

We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️

We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?

Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.

🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.

Remember, banks will:​​
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes​​
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device​​
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.

If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
