[QUOTE="austingtir, post: 764515, member: 54150"] ***** Muliaina said he felt "aggrieved" at the treatment he'd received and, earlier this week, he thanked the club, family, friends and even strangers for supporting him through a difficult period. "Not being able to comment publicly has been very frustrating. While I understand the police have a job to do, the manner in which I was arrested I find difficult to understand." His lawyer, John Charles Rees, QC, said Muliaina's prosecution was "outrageous". Simon Porter, his New Zealand-based agent, and New Zealand Rugby Players chief executive Rob Nicol were also critical of how Muliaina was dealt with during his arrest – calling it policing "at its worst." Porter said: "It was simply unnecessary to drag him off a rugby pitch under intense global media scrutiny. Unfortunately, it was a demonstration of police grandstanding at its worst." ***** How about you guys above explain how these perfect little welsh coppas of yours come to the conclusion that it was a good idea to arrest Mills under the known circumstances? Theres pratically nothing I can think of you can say to persuade me that its anything other than one of the three things I mentioned!! [/QUOTE]
