Questions have been raised about the legality of how the police obtained the information they used for a search warrant when they [raided the family home](https://thebfd.co.nz/2020/01/breaking-the-raids-have-begun-all-for-a-22-bunny-gun/?ref=goodoil.news) of *BFD* author **[Dieuwe de Boer](https://thebfd.co.nz/author/dieuwe/?ref=goodoil.news)** with approximately twelve armed officers.

In the audio below, University of Otago **Law Professor Andrew Geddis** explains the “legal problems” to Radio NZ host **Leigh-Marama McLachlan**.

> Armed police searched Dieuwe de Boer’s house this week, on a suspicion he had a prohibited magazine for a firearm – which they did not find.

> Mr de Boer had made a written submission to a parliamentary committee, including details about the magazine, which he republished on his blog.

> If the Police used details from the submission to get a search warrant, they could be breaking the law – but they deny doing so.
