Occupy Auckland eviction

Occupy Auckland Attempted Eviction, Illegal Police Activity
On the 23/01/12 Auckland City Council hired private security firms red badge and provision to enforce the bylaws that were being breached by peaceful protesters.

This involved the confiscation of the property of the occupiers with what could at times be described as excessive force.

There were multiple notices with different wording and several notices even had hand written alterations to them.

The legality of the councils actions is most certainly in question.

Also we saw police standing idly by as the theft occurred, they were there supposedly to "protect the peace" but there is nothing peaceful about the way they illegally detained two protesters.

It is clear where the allegiances of the police lie and it is NOT with the people they are meant to protect!

 Also the legality of their operations has got to come into question when several were sited wearing identical QID badge numbers.

Shame on the police and shame on the council. Mainstream Media can not be trusted and that is why the responsibility to truthfully report and record important events lies with us, the people!
