Earlier in the month I posted about a Queenstown court case where three men were being charged with the same drink-driving offence. It's been thrown out. What a waste of time. And it isn't a flash look for the police involved.
Defence counsel Sonia Vidal had said in the Queenstown District Court on April 11 she had huge concerns about the legality of the charges.
Police charged all three men because they did not know who had been driving during the incident which brought them to police attention.
They have no proof of who the driver was, or the exact vehicle that was driven, so police have entered the house and charged all three flatmates, she told Judge Dominic Flatley.
I have huge concerns about the legality of many steps in the process, Ms Vidal said.
