The Police also searched their 15 year old daughter at gunpoint. To quote from the article: "At about five o'clock in the morning I heard a crash and a bang outside," said Kohu. "I went outside on my deck, ... First Anniversary of the October 15 State Terror Raids - This morning life-sized posters of Helen Clark dressed as a 'ninja cop' appeared throughout Wellington. Today is the one year anniversary of gun-toting and armoured police terrorising people around the country in the name of terror prevention. Around 60 houses were raided at dawn, an entire community was locked down, and 17 activists were arrested on firearms charges in the NZ police's failed first attempt to use anti-terror law.

Seeking asylum is a human right - not illegal - WE ARE ALL BOATPEOPLE."It is not illegal to arrive in this country without a visa." Fleeing persecution and seeking refuge is a human right enshrined in international law. Some recent media reports have stated that 'illegal migrants' have been intercepted on the way to Australia. The myth that asylum seekers are illegal immigrants must no longer be perpetuated. A term like 'illegals' is not only offensive, but also inaccurate. Sarah Hanson Young Australia has a responsibility to assist asylum seekers. As a signatory to the 1951 United Nations Geneva Convention on Refugees, and a country that...

We decided that we did not have the energy required to continue the project and that therefore the collective had come to an end. We are however keen to help others take up the challenge of producing an activist based, participatory news site, whether that be a Melbourne Indymedia, an Australia Indymedia or something all together new. We feel such a space is very much needed. Several Melbourne Indymedia members expressed interest in mentoring such a project. If this interests you please contact us...

So Young, So Committed, and So Much in Danger - Even as young lawyers, they have witnessed injustices being committed as they chose to defend the oppressed. And because they persist in handling "controversial" cases, Jobert Pahilga and Noel Neri have earned the ire of some of the country's most powerful landlords and capitalists, as well as state security forces, and have become victims themselves of political retribution.
