Excerpt: A man on the police national watch list after allegedly making death threats against Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern is in custody after armed officers placed him in handcuffs at a rural Bay of Plenty property.

Richard Sivell tracked the arrival of police and his arrest through a series of posts to a Telegram chat group by himself and supporters.

It was the same social media account carrying Sivell's name that was used to make what could be considered to be threats to kill the Prime Minister and a number of journalists.

A spokeswoman for police said a search warrant was presented at the Te Puke rural address this morning.

"During this operation, a man refused to leave the premises and was arrested. He is due to appear in Tauranga District Court on April 4 on charges that include obstructing Police."

Reds openly talk about executing "Fascists" - But Ardern is a Red!

In audio messages to the Counterspin channel on Telegram, Sivell has used an account in his own name to say of government politicians: "They are going to die. We are not going to allow them to share this world with us anymore. Same as Jacinda. She is going to die. Execute these motherf***ers. I look forward to hearing their necks snap."

The Disenfranchised: The Telegram social media channel has become a popular alternative for anti-vax and other groups opposed to public health measures after a number were banned from mainstream apps. It has become a popular channel for far-right groups and extremists including Islamic State.

It was the same account and forum to which Sivell reported police interest this morning with an audio message.

Sivell's message announcing police said: "The pigs are up here." He then gave the address of a rural Bay of Plenty property. "They turned up first thing this morning - four masked goons. They tried to detain me and steal my property.

"I managed to fend them off and got in touch with a couple of people. They produced some f***ing bull* paperwork saying there was a search warrant. It was not signed by a judge. I asked him to leave it. He didn't leave it.

"They've been f***ing harassing me and they're staking me out at the moment up on top of the road."

Sivell asked for anyone in the Tauranga area to come to the address and "help me out".

"I don't even know why they are persecuting me," Sivell told the supporter. "I was told that they received a complaint from something I said online. They are going to all this effort against me just because I have an opinion. I haven't broken any laws."

Sivell said he wasn't going to let police in and hadn't had a chance to properly view the search warrant. "I've just got up and locked the door," he said. "Then they said they were going to smash their way in."

Sivell said police had spoken to him for an hour before agreeing to retreat back to the roadside.

"I'm pretty scared bro," he told his caller. "I don't know why it justifies this sort of behaviour. They have been looking for me for a long time just because I have a loud voice and an opinion."

While Sivell was on the phone, he began shouting to police who appeared to be approaching with the search warrant again. He called to officers to put the search warrant under a car tyre and to leave the property.

"You don't need to explain anything to me. Just put it under the wheel of the vehicle and I'll come and get it and have a read of it myself."

A minute later, sounds of an altercation could be heard over the phone line along with a dog barking. A voice can be heard calling: "On the ground", while Sivell is heard shouting: "F*** off. Leave me alone."

In a message, he said: "We are going to hang you Jezebel. You are such an evil c**t. I curse you to hell. I look forward to hearing your neck snap."

In messages posted by Sivell, he makes reference to holding trials he aligned with those held at Nuremberg after World War II.

Calls for "Nuremberg 2" trials are popular among groups opposing public health measures including vaccines and have seen photographs distributed showing rows of people hanging dead. The idea is based on the belief that Covid-19 vaccine rollouts - a primary tool in combating the pandemic - are violations of human rights.

Sivell said: "I think this government is completely rogue. They are enemies of the people. They are poisoning our country, they are poisoning our children and they need to be executed. I want to see them hung."

In 2020, Stuff reported Sivell had come to police attention after harassing a South Waikato District Councillor who had fled East Germany in the 1980s. Sivell, who was working in Tirau at the time, distributed flyers in which he called councillor Peter Schulte a "Nazi immigrant".

He also sent text messages, including one that said: "I'm coming for you Peter, this is not Nazi Germany, we are Anzacs, watch the wrath of God fall upon you".
So, everything's Nazi? ... He just lost any support he might have gained here. Let Sivell be martyred!
