Hi everyone,
I wanted to take a moment to address some recent developments that have raised concerns within our community.
Today, our page received a notification indicating that my post regarding the Society status violated Facebook's rules. After looking into it, I discovered that this was linked to an attempt aimed at gaining access to this account. This incident is particularly troubling, especially considering the ongoing issues we have faced with unauthorized access to information, including fraudulently access to IRD and the Society’s Registry. Additionally, we have had a former committee member access our hard drive and altered a document, along with unauthorized downloads of files related to Deutsch in Christchurch which I believe are being used outside of the Society.
I also highlight that the “Deutsch In Christchurch Community” page is not under my control and is not linked to the Society. Any posts on this is not authorized by myself or Deutsch In Christchurch Inc Society. I have been removed as a member of this page to avoid me from posting.
I want to again clarify that there has not been an Annual General Meeting (AGM) or any changes to our committee. Any claims suggesting otherwise are simply not true. It’s disheartening to see misinformation circulating. I’m surprised by the actions of a few individuals, but the truth will come out and this will only reflect on them and their family with the morals they hold.
The information being shared is not accurate, which can lead to misunderstandings and attempts to gain control over resources. Rest assured, I have procedures in place as I work through these challenges.
To provide clarity, I have sent a detailed 34-page document for members of our community involved in this illegal movement to read. It outlines what had happened and presented evidence, however this group of friends decided to ignore the truth. Unfortunately, the main person involved requested an apology, as it seems the document includes some truths they were uncomfortable with, truths that could point to some dishonesty and shortcomings.
Out of curtesy I’ve asked my solicitor to review the document and make necessary redactions based on that individual’s concerns. I aim to share this redacted file soon, as I understand it can be confusing without all the facts and let individuals come to their own conclusion.
I appreciate your support for our culture and any organization that represents it honestly. However, please note that Deutsch in Christchurch Inc. Society is not currently an active society, so I encourage everyone to be cautious with any interactions at this time and share this message to anyone you know.
