Mongrel Mob advisor on gang access to guns

From Morning Report, 6:40 am on 26 March 2021

Gang members believe the Mongrel Mob should have access to guns - free from discrimination and assumptions about how they will use them.

Some were at parliament on Thursday to oppose an expected national crackdown on guns held by organised crime groups and gangs.

A Mongrel Mob PR adviser, who appeared before the justice select committee, says police "racial profiling" of gang members has to stop.

Waikato Mongrel Mob Kingdom advisor Louise Hutchinson spoke to Susie Ferguson.
