  • Summary

  • In April 2016, the gates of the Manus Island detention centre were opened to the asylum seekers for the first time. The Papua New Guinea Supreme Court had unanimously ruled that the detention of asylum seekers on Manus Island violated their constitutional right to personal liberty. The court ordered the Australian and PNG governments to immediately take steps to close the centre.

    A few weeks later the men received news that their class-action lawsuit against the Australian government was to be settled out of court. Even though they would be compensated tens of thousands of dollars each, evidence of human rights abuses would never be made public.
