As reported in the media: ‘Human trafficker gets prison term'. The Serious Offences Unit took more than 5000 hours to bring this trafficker to justice. And 5000 hours at $100per hour is a cost of $500,000 at a very minimum. This scumbag is given a sentence of nine years and six months when the maximum penalty is 20 years imprisonment or a $500,000.00 fine or both. Incarceration costs in NZ are $100,000 per year, amounting to a total of $950,000 of taxpayers' dollars. I would suggest the NZ court system needs to implement a regime of ‘tough love' and deport Faroz Ali to wherever he came from, strip him of any citizenship he may hold in NZ and disallow him any further entry into this country. The cost of that may be $500 for a plane ticket and the Corrections budget would be $1.5 million dollars better off.

ship him back to where he came from.
I agree - he needs to go

but it would be a shame if he did not experience some idea of being locked up. He also has a wife and sister who were helping him, would they get shipped back too? They were as complicit in this as he was. A little bit of prisoner justice would not hurt him and hopefully the guards would turn their backs for just a couple of minutes - I do not condone violence - just a little lesson in how being hurt is not nice at all - and this bozo certainly hurt other people. I guess "home" is Fiji - and life on a tropical island is not too harsh. However M.J. Anderson has the right idea, he is costing us millions and the sooner he is sent back to where he came from, the better!
Agree with both of you.

I say put him in jail for a good while THEN deport him and his accomplices, never to return. I am pleased that for once the NZ judiciary showed some teeth with a lengthy sentence.
