NZ: Defence minister criticises Honiara riot report
Updated
New Zealand's defence minister has criticised a Solomon Islands report into riots in the capital Honiara, which followed elections last year and left parts of the city in ruins. Phil Goff says his government expected the report to find out who instigated the violence, and who took part. The report, commissioned by Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare and published on Thursday, said Australian-led police should have foreseen the election would cause trouble. Mr Goff says those responsible for the violence should be brought to justice.
