Young muslims want change or SIS head's resignation

From Morning Report, 8:25 am on 1 March 2021

Young Muslims are calling for Security Intelligence Service director-general Rebecca Kitteridge to go if no meaningful changes are made following the mosque attacks.

This comes on the heels of a 40 page report issued today by Muslim associations that pushes for more government accountability.

The SIS is overseen by the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet which told RNZ it holds no information about how it has been held to account and is not reviewing anyone's performance in the lead-up to the 15 March attacks.

Haris Murtaza was part of the Muslim Community Reference Group that advised the Royal Commission into the attacks.
