The Taste of Freedom

The man of the moment is Peter Qasim, a desperate and stateless soul, whose endless cry for freedom has touched the hearts and minds of many Australians.

Now, as luck would have it, he has managed to win back his freedom after spending nearly seven years of his young life behind the razor wire - all because he entered Australia illegally.

Finally, the Australian authorities have given him enough reason to live; issuing a visa that will free him from indefinite immigration detention.

But that’s not the end of the story!

Meanwhile, Peter is one of the long-term detainees being treated at Adelaide’s psychiatric hospital in South Australia.
