Govt criticised over Papuan treatment
- Description:
- The Federal Government has come in for more criticism today over its treatment of asylum seekers, after taking three Papuans who'd landed in the Torres Strait back to Papua New Guinea. The men had been detained on Horn Island for more than a month, but because it's already been declared outside Australia's migration zone, they were not entitled to have their claims heard in Australia. Papua New Guinea has agreed to take the men, but refugee advocates here say Australia should not offload its responsibilities to poorer countries.
