The Prime Minister says there is
an abuse of power by police in recent court cases, including the acquittal of
Assistant Police Commissioner Clint Rickards. Mr Rickards is fighting for his
job back, now that he has been acquitted of sex charges against him in two
trials. A commission of inquiry into
police conduct will be released soon and Helen Clark has hinted it could
create a stir. She says she can not comment on Mr
Rickards' employment issues, but it is clear that nobody would condone the
behaviour in which the officers were involved. |
