Border Force Turning Away Asylum Seekers at the Airport

The situation has raised concerns about just how often Border Force officials are blocking asylum seekers, and whether they are being held accountable for over-stepping their role.
To discuss asylum seekers being turned away at Australian airports, The Daily‘s Victor Petrovic was joined by Dr Daniel Ghezelbash, Senior Lecturer in Human Rights and Administrative Law at Macquarie University.
