Hearings on Zaoui to be held in secret
Human rights observers and reporters will be barred from a series of secret hearings held to review the security risk certificate lodged against Algerian refugee Ahmed Zaoui. Algerian refugee Ahmed Zaoui has been held in detention since he claimed political asylum on his arrival at Auckland Airport in December 2002 following almost a decade in exile.
The first hearing will begin on August 7. The Inspector-General of Intelligence and Security, Justice Paul Neazor, will be reviewing whether the security risk certificate from the Security Intelligence Service director, Richard Woods, was justified and proper.
