PAUSE
At 14.20
hours on 22 June 2009 the National Operations Centre received a phone call from
a male who stated he heard shots being fired from a yacht which was moored in
Dili Harbour. The caller stated his name
was Peter Smith and he was walking past the Government Palace when he heard
about five shots coming from a white yacht with blue writing which was moored
about 300 metres in front of the palace.
The Dili Maritime Unit was
dispatched and at 14.45 hours they located a white yacht with the name ‘Queen
Lina’ in blue writing on it. The patrol
consisted of 3 officers; 2 UNPOL and 1 PNTL local officer. The team leader was a Canadian officer named
Richard Simmons. UNPOL Simmons pulled
the police vessel alongside the yacht and called out for those aboard to come
out.
At that time a Caucasian white male
wearing blue shorts and a white shirt appeared from a cabin underneath. The male was about 30 years old, with short
brown hair and a moustache. He was
carrying something in his right hand but UNPOL Simmons couldn’t see what it
was. He thought the item may have been a
pistol so he directed the male to place the item on the deck and step away from
it and place his hands on his head. The
male complied and the maritime patrol then boarded the yacht.
The patrol handcuffed the male and
he was placed face down on the deck. UNPOL
Simmons saw that the item the male had placed on the deck was a flare gun and
not a pistol as he originally thought.
The male stated he was a New Zealand national and gave his name as Mark Robinson. His eyes were bloodshot, his speech was
slurred and his breath smelt of alcohol.
He stated that he let the flare gun off twice after consuming a bottle
of whiskey.
As he was speaking with Mr Robinson,
UNPOL Simmons saw 4 small plastic bags containing dried green leafy substance
and a large amount of US currency on a stoolchair. When questioned, Mr Robinson admitted that
the substance was cannabis and that the cash was obtained through the sale of
small bags of the substance to local people.
He obtained the cannabis in Australia and brought it to Timor aboard the
yacht.
A search of the galley revealed 5
more bags of dried cannabis which were seized by the Maritime Unit. $10,500 US dollars and the flare gun were
also seized by police. Checks with authorities in New Zealand revealed that Mr Robinson
was wanted by police in relation to several drug related crimes. Mr.Robinson
was conveyed to the Dili Watch House.
Enquiries are continuing.
You
will now hear a conversation between Dili District Commander and Canadian UNPOL
Richard Simmons.
CONVERSATION
|
Dili District Commander
|
Good morning Richard, I heard you
had an incident at Dili Harbor yesterday, 22 June 2009? What happened?
|
|
Richard Simmons
|
Yes sir, we did. The National Operations Centre received a
call at 2.20pm from a male who said he heard shots being fired from a yacht
moored in the harbour.
|
|
Dili District Commander
|
Who was the caller?
|
|
Richard Simmons
|
His name was Peter Smith. He had been walking past the Government
Palace when he heard about 5 shots from a white yacht with blue writing which
was moored about 300 meters in front of the palace.
|
|
Dili District Commander
|
Did the Maritime Unit attend?
|
|
Richard Simmons
|
Yes sir, me, one other UNPOL
and 1 PNTL local police officer attended. At 2.45pm we located a white yacht
with the name ‘Queen Lina’ written in blue.
After pulling the police vessel alongside the yacht, I called out for
those aboard to come out.
|
|
Dili District Commander
|
What happened then?
|
|
Richard Simmons
|
Well sir, a Caucasian white male
wearing blue shorts and a white shirt came out from a cabin underneath. He looked about 30yrs old and had short
brown hair and a moustache.
|
|
Dili District Commander
|
I heard he was carrying a gun?
|
|
Richard Simmons
|
No sir, I could he was carrying
something in his right hand but at first I couldn’t see what it was. I thought it was a pistol so I told him to
put the item on the deck, step away from it and put his hands on his head. Luckily he complied and our team boarded
the yacht.
|
|
Dili District Commander
|
What was it that he had?
|
|
Richard Simmons
|
After the male was handcuffed
and placed face down on the deck, I saw that it was actually a flare gun and
not a pistol as I originally thought.
|
|
Dili District Commander
|
That was lucky, what happened
then?
|
|
Richard Simmons
|
Well the male
said his name was Mark Robinson and he was from New Zealand. He had clearly been drinking because his
eyes were bloodshot, his speech was slurred and his breath smelt of
alcohol. He said he set the flare gun
off twice after he drank a bottle of whiskey.
|
|
Dili District Commander
|
Did you arrest him?
|
|
Richard Simmons
|
Sir, while I was talking to Mr.Robinson,
I saw 4 small plastic bags containing leafy green substance and a large
amount of currency sitting on a stoolchair.
|
|
Dili District Commander
|
Was it cannabis?
|
|
Richard Simmons
|
Mr Robinson admitted it was
cannabis and that the cash was obtained from the sale of small bags to the
local people.
|
|
Dili District Commander
|
Where did he get it from?
|
|
Richard Simmons
|
He said he got it in Australia and brought it here aboard
the yacht.
|
|
Dili District Commander
|
Did you find anything else?
|
|
Richard Simmons
|
Yes sir, we found 5 more bags
of cannabis, and $10,500 US dollars.
We seized these along with the flare gun.
|
|
Dili District Commander
|
Well done Richard.
|
|
Richard Simmons
|
Thank you sir, it turns out
that authorities in New Zealand were looking for Mr Robinson because he is wanted
by police in relation to several drug related crimes.
|
|
Dili District Commander
|
Great, where is Mr Robinson now?
|
|
Richard Simmons
|
He was taken to Dili Watch House. We’re continuing our enquiries in relation
to the matter.
|
|
Dili District Commander
|
Very well done Richard, pass on my
praise to your team.
|
|
Richard Simmons
|
Thank you sir, I will.
