The Guardian: Palestine Action Group Sues Australian Government Over Israeli Censorship Laws
March 18, 2025
A legal challenge has been launched against controversial New South Wales laws aimed at curbing antisemitism and which give police broad powers to restrict protests near places of worship.
The Palestine Action Group filed the challenge in the NSW supreme court on Monday, arguing in the statement of claim that the laws were invalid because the change “impermissibly burdens the implied [commonwealth] constitutional freedom of communication on government or political matters”.
Last week a firestorm erupted among NSW parliamentarians after NSW police revealed a caravan found laden with explosives on the outskirts of Sydney and a wave of antisemitic attacks were a “con job” by organised crime to distract police and influence prosecutions.
