HNZ Eviction: A Photo-essay
By Selwyn Manning
A surprise Police eviction squad smashed its way into a Housing New Zealand home in Balmoral, Auckland, at around 9:30 this morning.
It was an end to a rent-strike-protest against market rents for state house tenants. Len Parker has been barricaded up in his Balmoral HNZ home since early June.
Police smashed their way into the house through the roof and through the doors.
Security guards remain at the house along with about 30 protesters.
