I also replied to this post as follows:
Excessive force cannot be used to remove a trespasser as this is an assault. A better course of action is to call the police and later sue the trespasser for compensation for any damage caused. In some situations it may be appropriate to apply for a restraining order to stop a person from trespassing again. The police can be called to remove trespassers who will not leave when told to or, who return within twenty four hours. The police can prosecute the trespasser who faces a penalty of up to $2500 fine and imprisonment for up to six months [Summary Offences Act 1953 s 17a].
this refers to. if you see somebody randomly on your property then start beating the hell out of them without reason.
thats what the steps are for.
if they are trying to stab you. you shoot them (or stab them back). you do not get charged.
