As a show of solidarity with Native Hawaiians fighting for sovereignty an Auckland university professor has lodged a criminal complaint with the New Zealand Government under the International Crimes Act.
Dr Mera Lee-Penehira who has lodged the action says the United States illegally occupied Hawaii in 1898 and has been there illegally since.
Dr Lee-Penehira says of interest to many New Zealanders is the planned construction of the world's largest telescope on sacred Mauna a Wakea an action which is strongly opposed by Native Hawaiians.
