Possible extended director ban for businessman following court conviction

October 24, 2015 by SPCS Leave a Comment

The Registrar of Companies is making the rare bid of extending the statutory company director ban of a convicted businessman to 10 years due to the seriousness of his offending.

And just when he thought his days in court were over, he’ll be back next month to hear the Registrar of Companies application to have his statutory five year ban from being a director of a company extended to 10 years. [Read more…]

Sharp rise in perverts’ recordings – reports Ministry of Justice

October 12, 2015 by SPCS Leave a Comment

SOARING numbers of innocent people are being secretly perved at by voyeurs using clandestine cameras, according to the Ministry of Justice.

Figures released to The Dominion Post under the Official Information Act reveal the number of convictions for secret recordings in New Zealand more than quadrupled in the past four years.

In that period, convictions for intimate visual recordings increased from 35 to 2011 to 155 in 2014. Police figures also show arrests for such offending nearly doubled during that time from 38 in 2011 to 64 in 2014.

Arrests for publishing, importing, exporting or selling and possessing intimate visual recordings had also risen steeply in the past five years.

In July, New Plymouth man Gary Timothy Fenwick pleaded guilty to two charges of making intimate visual recordings. He disguised cameras in clothes-hooks and smoke detectors in a unisex toilet at the Event Cinema Complex.

In 2014, a Waikato man set up a camera in an air freshner container in his bathroom to spy on his daughter and two friends…..

The maximum sentence for making intimate visual recordings, possessing intimate recording in certain circumstances, publishing, importing, exporting or selling intimate visual recordings is three years in prison.

Kaikohe speaks out on sexual abuse of children

September 19, 2015 by SPCS Leave a Comment

[Northern Advocate 19/09/15] A Kaikohe group campaigning against sexual violence is holding a rally next week to highlight the long-term harm caused by child sexual abuse.

The group is also considering a protest to coincide with Auckland’s “Boobs on Bikes” in October, saying the parade normalises pornography and could lead to more behaviour like that of the infamous Roast Busters.

Organiser Mike Shaw, a Kaikohe pastor, said next Thursday’s rally aimed to raise public awareness of “the death of childhood caused by sexual abuse”.

Marchers would carry a coffin down Broadway to make their point. Fifty people took part in an earlier march in July but he expected more this time.

Mr Shaw said a march would not change anything on its own but it would give a voice to the pain of sexual abuse survivors.

“And if people are talking about it, solutions and actions will be generated,” he said.

Already work was under way to provide Kaikohe schools with information about intervention and prevention of abuse, as well arranging support when survivors had the courage to speak out.

People were getting better at speaking out against domestic violence, thanks in part to the It’s Not OK campaign, but sexual abuse remained a “no-go zone”.

The as yet un-named group grew out of MP Kelvin Davis’ Massive hikoi against sexual violence earlier this year. Some group members are also considering protesting at Auckland’s Boobs on Bikes parade organised by porn tycoon Steve Crow.

Mr Shaw said the group was concerned that normalising pornography, and its easy availability on the internet, could lead to sexual offences among youth and more behaviour like that of the infamous Roast Busters, who bragged online about their sexual exploits with underage girls.

He believed children were copying what they saw online and that watching hardcore pornography was warping the views of some youth as to what was acceptable behaviour. [Read more…]

MASSIVE sexual violence rally in Kaikohe

September 19, 2015 by SPCS Leave a Comment

Victims, ex-abusers and supporters stomped down the street to say sexual abuse is not ok.

The MASSIVE sexual violence march aimed to break the silence and raise awareness on Kaikohe’s Broadway July 23.

Supporter and survivor of sexual violence Judy Mihaka says it is prolific in our communities.

She says it’s something many people in her generation of baby boomers have experienced.

“All my friends, everyone I know has been molested in some way.”

She says the first step of the journey for rehabilitation, for both victim and abuser, is to admit it.

“It’s a hard thing for someone to put their hand up and get up in front of strangers and say ‘I did this’.”

Stop Demand, Korowai T?manako and the Riders against teenage suicide were involved in the rally and the whole community was invited, Kaikohe community leader Mike Shaw says. Even the Plunket van joined the march.
