Arrests
On January 16 of this year, two former prime ministers, an attorney-general, and a number of people of great eminence were arrested. The arrests were never disclosed in the Press. This conspiracy of silence was the result of government action.
The people behind these arrests are creating a new system of law; they need a different type of democracy from ours; unlike we in New Zealand, they cannot afford to have press freedom.
