MORE than 29,000 Australians are demanding a New Zealand man be deported after he avoided jail time for a one-punch attack on another man.
Caleb Maraku was sentenced to probation for the attack in Surfers Paradise in November last year.
Despite the crime carrying harsh penalties in many states, no conviction was entered.
Footage of the fight showed two people attacking the 19-year-old victim before Maraku hit him in the side of the head.
The young man fell unconscious to the floor, but later recovered from his injuries in hospital.
