Instead of arresting the tentee, they stripped the tent off her. Leaving her in her undies in a public park.
(1) It is highly implausible that any Australian government could make a law regulating what you wear, even more so for a city council. I assume lawyers are circling already. Can anyone say "unconstitutional"?
(2) People who break the law are supposed to be arrested, not stripped. WTF? |
They should have charged her with ... loitering within tent.
