KEY POINTS:
About 30 Tuhoe people in a Bay of Plenty community raided by police in October are to sue the police.
Lawyer Peter Williams, QC, said the group was taking the action after a settlement offer they made to the police drew no response.
The raid was on Ruatoki, 20km south of Whakatane, where police alleged terrorist training camps were being run.
Mr Williams said none of those involved in the lawsuit was arrested in the raids.
The group's claims would be disclosed today in Auckland, and court papers would be filed in about a month. Compensation was "part of the package".
