The High Court has ruled that the police raid on Kim Dotcom's home in 2011 was illegal, and the subsequent removal of hard drives was also unlawful.
Justice Helen Winkelmann found that the warrants the Police relied on to conduct the raid were too broad in scope as they were capable of including irrelevant as well as relevant material.
The Court ordered that relevant material is to be delivered to the US authorities and irrelevant material is to be returned to Dotcom immediately. A lawyer appointed by the Court will determine what falls within each category.
