Unit 88

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is about the New Zealand neo-Nazi organisation. For the Albanian counter terrorist group that also went by this name see RENEA.

Unit 88 is a minor neo-Nazi organisation based in Auckland, New Zealand. The movement was investigated by the Race Relations Office for distributing pro-Nazi literature in 1997 [1]. The investigation was supported by Minister of Justice Doug Graham, who intimated this in response to a question by New Zealand National Party MP Pansy Wong [2]. At the time it had been claimed that Unit 88 was in the process of seeking to expand its membership throughout the country [3]. Largely a racist skinhead movement, which claims to have around 100 members, links have been alleged between Unit 88 and Colin King-Ansell.
