New Zealand man has police return cars to him. Finds covert surveillance equipment (bugs) in car. Put them up for sale on the web. Now he's being charged with theft of property.
He says he put the ad on Trade Me to bring attention to what police were doing and because he says they didn't immediately own up to the tracking devices.
He says they initially replied no to an email he sent asking if they had left anything behind and then later changed that to a maybe.
