A Tauranga man has been arrested and charged in relation to a threatening video that had been uploaded onto the Internet.
The 44-year-old was charged this afternoon with making an objectionable publication and is due to appear in Tauranga District Court next Thursday.
The arrest comes following a police investigation of multiple complaints — including a number from Te Pāti Māori (the Māori Party) — about the video.
Police would not comment further about the alleged incident as the matter is now before the courts.
