It sounds like other KO tenants suffer the worst, to be honest.

Utterly shameful the previous government let it get this far.

    What they are doing is already illegal and already opens them up to criminal charges.

    This is poor management from the Ministry of Housing or whatever it is we are meant to call Kainga Ora these days.

    Those being victimized are some of society’s most vulnerable so our govt depts are dropping the ball. If this was happening in a leafy suburb those responsible would be before the courts.

      I definitely agree on that last count, if this happened in an area where the residents around them had resources available to them, all kinds of hell would be raised.

        When I lived in Parnell my neighbour sucessfully summoned police to our street because three men were talking in the road and she was worried they would pee in the letterbox.

        The laws exist for behaviours described like wilfull damage, assault, threatening behaviour, tresspass. They are just being very selectively enforced.
