Background
An 18 year old woman was taken off the street in Mangere and taken back to the Mob convention at Ambury Park in Auckland where she was raped and assaulted. They then poured petrol over her and urinated on her. She was also forced to pose for photos through the night. She escaped in the morning after they got tired of chasing her.
