Tamil refugee sews lips together in protest
The asylum seekers came to Australia seeking refuge from the brutal Tamil Tigers and Hazara organisations, but ASIO have repeatedly rejected their pleas to be granted refugee status.
Feiyi Zhang from Refugee Action Collective, said that the refugee’s actions are an indictment on the cruelty of government policy towards refugees. Zhang claims that ASIO is keeping these asylum seekers in detention for no justifiable reason.
