Police have completed a thorough multi-agency investigation, Operation Clover, into the activities of a group calling themselves “The Roast Busters”. The detailed 12 month enquiry focused on incidents involving allegations of sexual offending against a number of girls in the Waitemata Police district and wider Auckland area.

The Whole-of-Government Action Plan to Reduce the Harms caused by New Zealand Adult Gangs and Transnational Crime Groups is a collaborative approach to deal with the harms caused by these groups. It was developed through bringing Government agencies together to gather, share and analyse information on New Zealand adult gang members and prospects (individuals aged 17 years or older).
