New Zealand: Citizen Arrest for
Condi
In addition to talks with the New Zealand Government, US Secretary of
State Condoleezza Rice was in for a surprise when the Auckland University
Students' Association (AUSA) announced a $5,000 reward for any student who
makes a citizen's arrest on the visiting official. The reward has since been
withdrawn and according to Press reports, AUSA had said the arrest would be for
Dr Rice's role in “overseeing the illegal invasion and continued occupation” of
Iraq, and crimes under the Geneva Conventions Act 1958, and the Crimes of
Torture Act 1989."
