Prison abolition group People Against Prisons Aotearoa is defending a newsletter praising the actions of rioting prisoners who burned down part of Waikeria Prison.
In parliament yesterday Corrections Minister Kelvin Davis said the newsletter encouraged prisoners to riot, and called out Māori Party co-leader Rawiri Waititi, who involved himself in the Waikeria incident as a mediator.
PAPA spokesperson Emilie Rakete says the issue of the Take No Prisoners newsletter promoted non-violent organising. What we re doing is telling people they have rights. The crown even acknowledges people inside have rights so we are telling our whānau inside what those specific rights are and advising them of some courses of action that can be taken if those rights have been violated, she says.
