i have posted previously on the social and cultural disaster that arose from a dangerously driven wa police car driving on the wrong side of a curve/corner and smashing into the lower body of rex bellotti jnr. this occurred some 2 1/2 years ago but still the bellotti family, and especially rex jnr, are no nearer to a justice outcome or even some proper compensation to be paid.

by Gerry Georgatos During the last month Indymedia Australia and The National Indigenous Times in Editions 231 and 233 have highlighted the plight of the Western Australian Nyungar family whose young son, the eldest of their six children, was hit by a police-four-wheel drive. The incident occurred on March 6, 2009 and in that time the struggle for some justice and meaning had been lost in a vacuum of inhumanity, and only recently largely thanks to The National Indigenous Times and to Indymedia Australia and to the consequent awareness-raising have we prised some piecemeal gains.
