Published 4 days, 17 hours ago
Description
The Australian War Memorial has confirmed that Ben Roberts-Smith's display in the Hall of Valour will remain regardless of the outcome of his war crimes court case. Director Matt Anderson states the memorial will update the facts as they emerge, whilst both sides of politics hold opposing views on how the display should be handled. The Victoria Cross recipient faces five counts of war crime murder charges from alleged incidents in Afghanistan and lost a civil defamation case to Nine newspapers in 2023.
