Description

Shows several Melbourne customs officials engaged in searching the luggage of a man arriving from Bangkok who is being held by another official. The two officials who can be seen searching a bag have smoke pouring out of their heads and feet and their faces and arms are black. A third official has just gone up in smoke and whizzed out of sight. The official writing the report asks him if he found a stun gun too. Refers to such an incident, less exaggerated that actually happened, of interest because there is debate about the use of stun guns by New Zealand police currently.
