Dear Sir
|
||
|
I wish to draw to your attention to the enclosed article Satanism
|
||
|
linked to child porn (Sunday News 3 Nov 1991), with particular emphasis on
|
||
|
the statement that "the latest revelation to stun NZ Police is a
|
||
|
correspondence course on Satanism... run by a group called Order of the
|
||
|
Left Hand Path."
|
||
|
|
||
|
The article attempts to link the OLHP, of which I am the organiser,
|
||
|
or 'Magister' mentioned in the article, with child pornography.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I find the allegations appalling, there being no justification
|
||
|
whatsoever linking the OLHP - either directly or indirectly - with such
|
||
|
activities, or anything else of a morally or legally suspect nature.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This article is now the subject of a complaint to the NZ Press
|
||
|
Council.
|
||
|
|
||
|
What I would like to know is whether the NZ Police are indeed
|
||
|
'stunned' by the correspondence courses offered by the OLHP and, if so, the
|
||
|
reasons for such concern.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I would like to know whether the OLHP, myself or anyone connect
|
||
|
with myself or the Order in any way, is under suspicion by the Police,
|
||
|
either directly or indirectly, in regard to child pornography, ritual
|
||
|
abuse, or any activity whatsoever which could even broadly be considered
|
||
|
morally or legally suspect.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Additionally, I would like to know why Snr Sgt Gabites is being
|
||
|
permitted to use his position as a policeman to make public statements
|
||
|
against and otherwise harass a legitimate philosophical and ethical
|
||
|
alternative. While his concern about child abuse is of course laudable, he
|
||
|
appears to be using this as a pretext to launch a personal crusade against
|
||
|
Satanism per se. As you may recall I have previously made my concern
|
||
|
regarding Sgt Gabites' activities known to you (your re. 910926/6801), to
|
||
|
the Dept of Social Welfare, and to Sgt Gabites personally, and have
|
||
|
challenged him to present any evidence for his allegations, without reply.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I will be sending a copy of this letter, and your reply , to the NZ
|
||
|
Press Council, as it relates to the outrageous allegations made by
|
||
|
journalist Les Wilson.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Yours Faithfully
|
||
|
|
||
|
