I am disappointed in the New Zealand immigration system. I am very disappointed,&rdquo; Rose complained on Tuesday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&ldquo;I want people to understand my side of the story, to set the record straight.&rdquo;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rose was originally granted a work visa when he was offered a position as coach for the University of Auckland Cricket club, but has not had a valid visa since 2012.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He says he was attacked, beaten and chopped by four white men who used racial slurs while attempting to steal his car.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&ldquo;They beat me down. One (guy) missed my head and chopped me on the hand,&rdquo; said Rose, who was later admitted to the Intensive Care Unit at hospital. He stayed three days before being released.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&ldquo;The nurses kicked me out; (they) said they needed to care for other patients. After a day my friend had to take me back to the hospital. I was having some serious pains. The doctors told me I had a blood clot in my lungs and I had nerve damage in my hand.&rdquo;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rose says he checked into a private hospital at a daily cost of $1,500. He was discharged a week later.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Agency.<\/p>\r\n",
