Australian police issue arrest warrant for fraudster already jailed in NZCHRIS SKELTON/FAIRFAX NZ Victoria Police have issued a warant for former Ministry of Transport manager Joanne Harrison's arrest. Australian police have issued a warrant for New Zealand Ministry of Transport fraudster Joanne Harrison's arrest over a fraud case across the Tasman - but may have to wait until she finishes her jail-term here. "A warrant has been issued for the arrest of a 50-year-old New Zealand woman in relation to a fraud investigation," Victoria Police said in a statement on Saturday. The Transport Ministry did not respond to that claim on Friday. Labour's transport spokeswoman Sue Moroney has called for a full investigation into how the Transport Ministry handled the case.
