I hope he takes them to the cleaners. NZ executive authorities acted really badly in this saga, playing action cops along their US friends with no respect for the rule of law in their own country.
Dotcom might not be a pleasant character, but being an asshole is not a crime in NZ. If they don't like their own laws they should change them, not wave guns around because some cowboy tells them to.

> Dotcom's legal team will are now also looking to unfreeze Dotcom's assets in Hong Kong and also seek "remedy" for the raid of the internet entrepreneur's house.
As long as the U.S. (FBI specifically) have him on their radar, I don't think this is very likely.

More interested to see if he gets compensated by the government when he sues for damages.
