Published 5 months, 1 week ago
Description
A new study reveals that communities with multi-racial backgrounds are exposed to warrantless searches up to three-and-a-half times more than communities in white-majority areas. According to the analysis of Victoria Police's use of extraordinary search power, this happens even when areas of white-majority communities have higher crime rates.
