A Bay of Plenty MP is calling for the reports into the Ruatoki raids in 2007 to be made public.
Waiariki MP Te Ururoa Flavell is calling for the Independent Police Conduct Authority and the Human Rights Commission to release their reports into Police actions on the 15 October 2007.
Bay of Plenty MP Te Ururoa Flavell is calling for reports on the Ruatoki raids to be released.
'In the interests of accountability and transparency, the public deserve to have the full information about what really went on with Operation 8.
'Both of these reports are long overdue.”
The call comes after the second of two men jailed as part of the Ruatoki Raids in 2007 is granted parole.
Te Rangikaiwhiria Kemara was granted parole this week after Tame Iti was paroled last week.
Kemara was one of four people found guilty last year of firearms offences in relation to the alleged military style camps in the Te Ureweras.
He was granted parole on Monday after serving nine months of a two and half year sentence.
Iti and Te Rangikaiwhiria Kemara were jailed after being found guilty in the High Court at Auckland in May 2012 on firearms offences relating to the 2007 raids.
Urs Signer and Emily Bailey were also sentenced to nine months' home detention each after they were found guilty of unlawful possession of firearms.
All four were arrested as part of the raid in Ruatoki in 2007.

The reports mean nothing because the case has gone to court and been decided already, that means the decision of the court is it, all done, finished and over.

And this angry individual wants to lead the Maori Party. Don't worry about the Police have a look at the birks & rambos running around the countryside shooting from the hip. If you are supporting them just say so and be done with it rather than try and slither in under the back door.

No point unless you have a real case to make an appeal, won't be in the reports, perhaps if the guns that they were all running around with were plactic and not the real ones would be helpful but well that did not happen now did it.
