One of the men arrested in last week's anti-terrorist raids has
been badly beaten in prison but is refusing to name his attacker.
Jamie Lockett, who faces three Firearms Act charges, was
taken to hospital after an assault but is now back in prison.
He has refused to lay a complaint or reveal any details of the assault
to police or prison staff, the Corrections Department said.
The attack on Lockett was raised in Auckland District Court yesterday by lawyer Mary Kennedy who successfully
argued her client, Rongomai Peropero Bailey, 28, also arrested during the raids should be freed on bail.
Ms Kennedy said Lockett had received "quite serious injuries" in Sunday's assault while on remand
at Mt Eden Prison in central Auckland, where five of the 17 arrested in the raids were being held.
Lockett's lawyer, Jeremy Bioletti, told Radio New Zealand he was worried his client might
be a target while in custody and he wanted the authorities to ensure he was looked after.
Mr Bioletti said his main priority was to have his client released again on bail.
Lockett was granted bail at his first court appearance last Tuesday,
but it was revoked on appeal by the crown later that day.
Granting the appeal, Justice Helen Winkelmann said
Lockett had disregarded bail conditions in the past.
Bailey was put into protective custody on Monday after his cellmate's
nose was broken by another inmate in a separate dispute over a cigarette.
OH!, THOSE FAGS ARE BAD!
Sixteen others arrested in last week's raids remain in custody,
including veteran Tuhoe campaigner Tame Iti. Aha! .. in reply ..
