Government illegally spied on Kim Dotcom
The Government's intelligence agency is under investigation for illegally intercepting information in the Kim Dotcom case.
Prime Minister John Key has ordered an inquiry into breaches made by the Government Communications Security Bureau while it assisted police to investigate Megaupload founder Dotcom over piracy charges.
The bureau used illegal methods to locate certain individuals who were later issued with arrest warrants. The Crown has filed a memorandum in the High Court.
Key said he was disappointed unlawful acts had taken place.
"I expect our intelligence agencies to operate always within the law. Their operations depend on public trust," he said.
"Because this is also a matter for the High Court in its consideration of the Megaupload litigation, I am unable to comment further."
