This morning I received very stressful news from #Bomana prison and I can’t see why the media’s in Australia don’t talk about it. One of the strong man whom I know & worked with during my 6years on Manus helping the others with their medical treatment, contacting lawyers & etc.
It has been 31 days he has not eaten and his mental & physical health deteriorates, Am really scared this man will lose his life if they don’t provide him proper medical treatment in next few days. Since the #Govt forcibly put him and others 53 guys in #Bomana awe heard nothing.
They have had their phones confiscated, no visits from lawyers, #RedCross, #UNHCR advocates of friends. There is also a media blackout, medical & no contacts with their families since then. I have been contacted by one family yesterday in Irani & they’re asking about their #son.

After the lies Dutton has been spreading today in regards to the Biloela family, I started reflecting on the first time I truly understood how dark and dirty this man can get. Remembering the lies & the Good Friday Shooting on #Manus Island
When the PNG Navy opened fire on the #Manus refugees on Good Friday 2017, Peter Dutton brazenly lied and said that no one had been injured, only one weapon had been fired in the air and then insinuated that it had happened because a young boy had been lured into the camp.
For nearly a month the department maintained that “no one was injured” and that the Papua New Guinean military personnel had discharged only one weapon into the air during the incident.
