Why was a terrorist allowed to walk the streets
Why was Martin Place terrorist Man Haron Monis free to walk the streets? Had he been behind bars where he belonged, Tori Johnson and Katrina Dawson would be alive today.
Charged with over 40 serious sexual offences and being an accessory to the murder of his former wife, he’d been convicted for appalling attacks on the families of soldiers who’d been killed on duty in Afghanistan.
Was it the O’Farrell government’s soft bail law? Was it the magistrates, or did the DPP fail to present the police case properly? When the coroner ordered the DPP to open his files, he claimed ‘legal privilege’. The answer’s simple − rush through a bill retrospectively revoking the DPP’s privilege. The victims’ families, as well as the nation, deserve answers.
