Twenty-seven of the foreigners whose indefinite detention was quashed by a landmark High Court decision are cases that have been referred to immigration ministers over several years under the category of “very serious violent offences, very serious crimes against children, very serious family or domestic violence or violent, sexual or exploitative offences”.
Late on Thursday evening revealed a “dashboard” prepared for the government about the detainees before the High Court decision last week, which ruled indefinite immigration detention was illegal, overturning a 20-year precedent.
