ALCP: John Key wants your DNA
Allowing Police to
take DNA Samples from people they 'intend to charge' is
a
case of Guilty until proven Innocent, according to the
Aotearoa Legalise
Cannabis Party (ALCP).
"This law is a
major breach of Human Rights not to mention a
completely
Fascist and unjustified intrusion into
citizens' lives," says party
spokesperson Julian
Crawford.
"Every year over 10,000 New Zealand citizens
suffer the indignity of a
criminal conviction for growing
or smoking a medicinal herb: Cannabis.
Under the dictate
of John Key everyone of these people could have their
DNA
forcible taken from them by Police," says
Crawford
"What happened to Justice in New Zealand and the
right to be treated as
Innocent until proven Guilty?"
says
Crawford.
