Jacinda Ardern asked about Interpol email leak re stopping journalists at press conference.

Hopefully the PM can “verify” the details! Everyone wants to know the facts, why the mystery Jacinda?

The organisations named in the emails were approached last week for comment by multiple media publications in NZ and even Aus, they either declined to comment or responded by saying they won’t share information about operational matters. None of the organisations denied the contents of the email.

One would think It would be easy to confirm such a detail, especially when questions are being put directly to the PM now.

Props to the reporter for being on the ball, especially when he caught out Jacinda and corrected her at one point on the details of Avi’s entry ban.

For the internet sleuths trying to email the address, and looking for public domains as proof of credibility…that’s not how internal email servers work.

The story is not going away…

People are very interested in finding out why Interpol/NZ Police are potentially involved in curtailing press freedoms and the right to political communication in a liberal democracy.
