Corrections Minister Kelvin Davis wouldn't disclose where the alleged offender is but it is believed he is currently in the maximum security Auckland prison at Paremoremo.
The prison is home to New Zealand's most violent criminals.
Among them is recently convicted murderer Malcolm Rewa, and William Bell who is serving a 30-year minimum sentence for the murder of three Mt Wellington-Panmure RSA staff in 2001.
