Gangs are in the firing line. The new Government is promising to crack down, banning gang patches and insignia, and prohibiting members from gathering in public.

Ōpōtiki is one place where gang culture, shootings and drug houses have made headlines. Some say the gangs run the town, they certainly outnumber police. So how do those on the thin blue line think this will play out?

Sunday speaks with officers who break ranks to share their concerns, saying there are not enough boots on the ground to enforce the bans.

A Sunday exclusive investigation.
