The New Zealand Parole Board has denied parole to Peter Waihape, a convicted murderer who killed a young woman in Christchurch 20 years ago. Officials warn that he remains a significant danger to the public and is prone to escalating violence.
It has been 20 years since Peter Steven Waihape was jailed for life for the murder of a young Christchurch sex worker and mother - tying her up and laughing as he repeatedly ran her over while she pleaded for her life, before dumping her body in the Avon River.
