Hamed Shamshiripour killed himself last Monday, just outside Australia’s concentration camp in Manus Island, Papua New Guinea. Hamed was experiencing worsening mental health issues due to his ongoing detention but received minimal care. He is the seventh person who has died in the last few years in Australia’s overseas concentration camps. Australia’s callous and brutal policies towards these refugees was further exposed by the recent revelations of the Prime Minister Turnbull supplications to President Trump to take the detainees. In the meantime, the refugees on Manus have started another indefinite series of protests.
Close the Camps! Bring them Here! Let them Stay!
