March on

8:19 am on 12 November 2013

Public marches are being planned throughout the country in response to revelations about a group of teenage boys who boasted online about having sex with drunk under-age girls.

As well as this, an online petition calling for the Prime Minister to make changes ensuring justice for rape victims already claims to have reached its target of 75,000 signatures.

A multi-agency investigation involving the police, Child Youth and Family, the Ministry of Education and ACC has been launched to investigate the group of boys calling themselves Roast Busters.

And a specialist in the study of men's violence against women and children is praising the decision by RadioLive to pull John Tamihere and Willie Jackson off air for the rest of the year, saying it is "responsible".
