Australia's Highest Court Rules Against Indefinite Migrant Detention, Foreign-Born Criminals Released
2023-11-16
[Breitbart] Immigration detention centres in Australia have released dozens of foreign-born convicted criminals into the community after the High Court ruled indefinite detention unconstitutional. The bulk of those allowed to walk free have previously been refused visas on character grounds.

Australia’s left-wing Prime Minister Anthony Albanese left the country soon after the release for yet another overseas trip after conceding in Parliament no immediate plan existed to deal with the flood of criminals.

Under his current Labor government net overseas migration (NOM) into Australia continues to break all records.

Over the September quarter, there were 145,550 net permanent and long-term arrivals into Australia. This was a record for a September quarter and more than double the 69,640 that arrived in the same quarter of 2022.

Now more are being added to that number.

A paedophile who raped a 10-year-old boy, a hit man who blew up a pregnant woman with explosives and a sex predator who attacked elderly women are among the criminals allowed into the community, News.com.au reports.

All were released after the High Court ruled that indefinite immigration detention is unlawful where there is “no real prospect” that a person’s removal is “reasonably practicable in the foreseeable future.”

The court is yet to release the reasons behind its ruling last week that overturned a 2004 precedent that stateless people could be detained indefinitely.
