A police officer has been charged with organising drug runs
for a methamphetamine ring and accessing the police computer
system to tip off his colleagues in the Head Hunters gang.
New Zealand's top policeman has sent a stern message to his
officers, saying they can't be seen as 'McCops' by accepting
discounted meals at fast food outlets.
The primary suspect in an investigation into the murder of
road worker George Taiaroa claims he is wanted only because
he had a vehicle that matched the description of one police
were looking for, an associate says.
