Australian Immigration Daily News

Just came across this article and not sure if anyone has seen it before and it is now 'old news', but I felt that it was something that needed to be covered.   It is a story on Chris Bowen and his treatment of a Hazara he ordered back to Afghanistan.

This is the type of government we have had to deal with for a while now and this is indicative of the contempt shown for these Hazara visa applicants by the previous Immigration Minister.

The point I would like to raise is why did it have to take an Australian court to dictate to Bowen what is and what is not acceptable?
