PROTEST RALLY

The refugee activists in South Australia have staged an angry protest rally outside the home of the federal Immigration Minister, Senator Amanda Vanstone; demonstrating against what they described as “Cruel and inhumane” treatment of asylum-seekers and refugees in detention.

“It’s about telling Amanda Vanstone that her policies are causing immeasurable pain and suffering to huge groups of innocent people”, so says Tim Petterson, the Refugee Action Collective spokesman, during the rally.
