Police Address Concerns Over Armed Sovereign Citizens in Northern Tasmania
Police have downplayed concerns over the potential risk posed by armed so-called sovereign citizens in Northern Tasmania.
Following a crackdown by Western Australian Police, who seized over 100 guns from individuals with views consistent with those of sovereign citizens, questions arose about how police monitor potentially armed groups in the area.
Tasmania Police regularly review this information.
Assistant Commissioner Rob Blackwood stated that Tasmania Police actively monitors individuals who identify as sovereign citizens to maintain community safety, but did not comment further due to operational and investigative reasons.
"Tasmania Police does not comment on, or confirm, certain individual policing activities due to operational and investigative reasons," Assistant Commissioner Blackwood said.
