New Zealand Police Minister Judith Collins has slammed a "stunt" in which a newspaper sent people masquerading as terrorists with fake bombs to Super 14 rugby games as "unbelievably stupid".
The Sunday Star-Times commissioned people dressed as terrorists to enter stadiums in the southern city of Christchurch and the northern city of Hamilton last weekend, Collins said.
"The actions are unbelievably stupid and irresponsible. This stunt had the potential to result in games being called off and stadiums evacuated," Collins said.
"Common sense would tell you that running around a stadium dressed as a bomber has the potential to end very badly," she said.
Any panic could have resulted in injuries, particularly to the elderly and children, she said.
Reports said the bogus terrorists with fake bombs strapped to their bodies entered public areas, the players' tunnel and corporate hospitality areas in the stadiums.
