Anonymous

Last Issue was the issue of anonymous phone calls. A woman rang up to congratulate Salient on publishing details of Citizens' Rights She said she has had four children pass through university and knows that the police do sometimes infringe on individual liberties. She cited the case of her son, who, she said, had been arrested, roughed up by the police, not told what he had done wrong, thrown into jail for a night, not permitted to ring a lawyer, and then released after it was decided he was innocent.

Another caller begged Salient to mail copies of the front-page article to the directors of Truth (NZ) Ltd. He recited a long list of articles by Kevin Sinclair which he said were sensationalism in very poor taste. (The copies have been mailed.)
