Lynley Hood makes a good point as allegations of abuse at the former Waiouru
army cadet school mount -- due process must be followed, everyone involved
should be interviewed, claimants should give evidence on oath and be
cross-examined, and all personnel involved should be invited to respond, as
well as all written records looked at. For as she warns,
anything that smacks of a witch hunt and prejudgment of the issues will just
do more damage in what is already a fraught situation. |
