Demand an End to Government Corruption in NZ!

A Petition for Justice for Hugh Price

In 1975 New Zealand pharmacist Hugh Price of Apex Group Industries began the process of developing a range of revolutionary pharmaceutical products that he knew would significantly aid in the global fight against mosquito-borne malaria. After twenty years of intensive research and development, he produced sixteen highly effective prevention medicine products including insect repellent products, originally designed for the New Zealand Armed Forces but NATO Codified and suitable for use by people living in, or travelling to, all malaria affected territories throughout the World.

What a marvellous achievement. So how could it all go wrong? How could it transpire that instead of enjoying the satisfaction of knowing that he had contributed to the solution to a world-wide health crisis as well as the significant financial rewards from his innovation and expertise, Hugh was faced with the nightmare scenario of years of defamation, theft, intimidation and bankruptcy, adding up to a gross miscarriage of justice?

Ten years later, Hugh is still reeling from the devastating outcomes of these losses but determined to achieve the justice that is his right. After years of being silenced, discredited and side-lined by those who are charged to protect the rights of New Zealand citizens, he believes that this petition will serve to publicise and bring support to his cause. So that justice may finally prevail.

So who are the government agencies that have failed in their duty to Hugh and the millions of people who can benefit from his life-saving products? It may be hard to believe but he lists "the N.Z.Taxation Authority, the I.R.D., N.Z. Government Ministers and the New Zealand Police." Why would these agencies, designed to serve the public good be contributing to the destruction of a highly valuable New Zealand based export business with extensive markets in the Pacific, Asia, the U.K and Europe, the Middle East, Australia, U.S.A and Canada.

In a so-called decent Society, how could this have happened?
(Details of this story are massive and are fully documented with reports, diary notes and original documents for all to see at an appropriate time.)

And what has been the cost of this massive failure of the New Zealand judicial system?

The actions of the IRD destroyed Export Development, costing many millions, by Apex in 18 Countries, including the Armed Forces of several Nations. The IRD destroyed Market Development in 18 Countries, where these Companies also spent huge resources to market Apex World Endorsed products only to have them terminally and permanently damaged.
The IRDs criminal actions have cost New Zealand Taxpayers hundreds of million dollars of Tax and Exports, Worldwide.
The IRDs criminal actions have caused huge damage to Medical Practitioners of the Health Sectors major purge of Malarial related disease, one of the World's biggest killers. (see at the reverse of this petition TMVC Testimony and the Repel/Apex/Price/Army product documents.)
The IRDs criminal actions that destroyed Apex and the Price Family has denied hundreds of thousands, probably millions of Doctors, worldwide access to the Best Insect Repellent range of products ,invented and designed to help prevent a wide range of Malarial diseases, one of the World's biggest killers.
Mediation offered by the N.Z. Police and the IRD to Apex and the Price Family was criminally damaged on several occasions by the New Zealand Governmental Authorities listed directly above at a very high cost to Apex and the Price Family.
The N.Z. Police, despite many requests since 2018, have refused to investigate the criminal damage aspects of this case, involving senior members of the N.Z. Taxation Authority, the IRD." Nobody is above the Law ".
The N.Z. Government is responsible for a major Coverup, blocking the nationally gazetted Select Committee Hearing in 2019 (confirmed by the NZ Justice Committee notification, 30.05.2019), that would have exposed the fraud, corruption and criminal damage resultant of N.Z. Governmental actions and inactions. By this they have condoned orchestrated criminal actions by the N.Z. Police and N.Zs Taxation Authority, the IRD.



Which leaves us with the serious questions:
Why were the N.Z. Police and the SFO not interested in investigating a valid case of massive fraud professionally calculated to be in excess of NZ$6.5m.
Why was the N.Z. Taxation Authority, the IRD, determined to destroy an innovative family and their world renowned export company?
Does the N.Z. Prime Minister know the full facts of this disaster? Senior Labour party officials have advised us that the relevant emails, letters, messages and phone calls have been BLOCKED (confirmed by NZ Government letter, 01.06.2019). More junior Labour Party staff have assured J.H. Price that the Prime Minister is fully aware of all the problem. Whatever the truth, the N.Z Government must act now.


In Summary
The IRD, NZs Taxation Authority has committed acts of fraud, corruption and criminal damage that has destroyed the reputation, relationships, health and prosperity of:
12 Price Family close members.
11 Apex N.Z independent shareholders and countless Apex Subsidiary employees, Apex direct employees and employees of 18 International Companies.
A Russell McVeagh barrister, solicitor and Q.C and one ex member has committed fraud and criminal damage.
The N.Z.Police and the S.F.O. both refused to investigate their criminal activities, causing very serious damage and the catalyst to later problems.
The IRD, New Zealand's Taxation Authority is THE major player in the " Destruction of the Apex Group of eleven Companies, including several International Subsidiaries. Their actions have already cost New Zealand and its citizens hundreds of millions of N.Z. dollars, as well as unbelievable trauma.
These facts are confirmed in a 2007 Mediation over a Counterclaim by Apex and the Prices. This was prepared by an experienced Auditor/Accountant and an ex IRD barrister and solicitor who was also a qualified accountant. These appointed agents subsequently cost over $70,000 NZ Dollars of Apex funds over a 14 month timespan, so the proposed mediation was blocked by an IRD decision. What an outrage and another IRD scam! The N.Z Governments claim that NZ Business is clear of corruption is certainly not valid or even remotely correct.
Alongside the catastrophic effects of these crimes on the Price family, they have also robbed New Zealand and the world of a wonderful opportunity. All they have achieved is to cause further financial damage when they bankrupted Hugh Price, not to mention the loss of estimated profits calculated by experts to exceed a further NZ$20 million. This is why it is vital that concerned New Zealand citizens and others throughout the world tell the N.Z Government to get their act together and restore some justice.
The N.Z. Government continues to allow the criminal activity of the N.Z. Police and the IRD go unpunished. All statements are accurate, provable and truthful, and yet resulted in the bankruptcy of Hugh Price, solely because he refused to pay the I.R.D NZ$5275.00 in tax that he clearly and provably did not owe.
In response to a recent direct request to the NZ Prime Minister for justice, the Price family received a reply from a senior Cabinet Minister (dated Ex-NZ Government, 24.07.2018, the letter clearly states and confirms five major IRD omissions, some also confirming criminality). Just another "cop-out ", but it did prove early IRD criminal action.

So what can you do to help?
Support this petition. Force the N.Z. Government to address this unresolved case of serious corruption, fraud and criminal damage by their top Governmental Authorities and to demand compensation from the parties involved.
The New Zealand Government's flagrant breach of duty must be addressed. The New Zealand Government has NOT demanded accountability from their main Authorities. This is a serious "cop-out".


Petitioners: Please circulate this petition to family, friends and other networks. Thank you.

This petition plea has been written and compiled by the Citizens Committee to obtain justice for the Price Family and Apex.
For further enquiries contact, Hugh Price, between 9am and 5pm, daily on 09 4210217
