Joshua Grainger made this Official Information Act request to New Zealand Police
The request was refused by New Zealand Police.
From: Joshua Grainger
15 August 2012
Dear New Zealand Police,
This is an Official Information Act request for OFCANZ, the agency
focused on organised crime that is hosted within the New Zealand
Police. It was noted in the 2010 Report 'Organized Crime in New
Zealand', published on the OFCANZ website, that there currently
exists '30 adult gangs in New Zealand.' I would like to request
under the Official Information Act:
a) A list of each gang or transnational criminal group that
currently operates in New Zealand
b) For each, the geographic area in which they operate
c) For each, the area of crime that they are thought to operate in.
For example it is noted that the report that Vietnamese organized
crime groups have a link to indoor cannabis growing.
I would ask that if any exemptions are to apply to my request, such
as that they be considered on a case by case basis. It might be
public record that a certain criminal group commits a certain type
of crime or operates in a certain area, in which case disclosing
this is unlikely to affect ongoing investigations.
Feel free to contact me if you wish me to clarify my request. I
would prefer an electronic response delivered by email to this
address.
For the purpose of s12 I am a New Zealand citizen resident in New
Zealand.
Yours faithfully,
Joshua Grainger
