Australia Orders Close Monitoring After Court Rules Indefinite Immigrant Detention Unlawful

FILE - Australian Minister for Immigration Andrew Giles, shown here at Parliament House in Canberra on Sept. 12, 2023, says a new law that forces recently released immigrant detainees to adhere to strict visa restrictions was designed “to keep the community safe."

Ninety-three people released by court order from indefinite immigrant detention will be forced to comply with strict visa conditions starting Saturday.
