The director of a rehabilitation centre says she had no warning ahead of a police raid at the facility yesterday.
Nga Kete Wananga Solutions, a kaupapa Māori residential facility, was swarmed by police in an operation targeting gangs.
They siezed almost half a kilogram of methamphetamine, $5000 in cash, and a firearm.
A thirty-eight year old man, who is a patched gang member, was arrested in relation to the items found.
Nga Kete Wananga Solutions director Matilda Kahotea spoke to Susie Ferguson.
